The Mojave Desert, also known as “Aerospace Valley,” is the home of many of America’s greatest aviation achievements including the flight of our first jet the P-59 Airacomet. It is time to bring classic aviator skills and jet aircraft back to MHV! In decades past, the CJAA had held Jet Blasts at KMHV. The Airmanship Foundation, aka Mojo Flight, has been conducting civilian formation operations from MHV for several years now. It is time to join together the efforts of both of the jet and piston groups!
Please join The Airmanship Foundation at Flight Research, Inc’s (FRI) state of the art flight test facility at Mojave Air & Spaceport on 23-26 February for the first MOJO JET BLAST!
This is a combined event for both piston and jet formation flying activities. Come out, hone your skills and join in the camaraderie that only exists in the Aerospace Valley.
