on the wings of hope

Mission Details

The WWII mission consists of a pre-flight mission briefing, going over all of the objectives in a tactical briefing room setting, similar to how it was done during WWII. This is followed by taking off from Scottsdale Airport, near Phoenix, Arizona, and flying north to the Radome. Here, the pilots will attempt to take some digital reconnaissance images of the Radome as the main mission objective.

On the way to the Radome, the pilots have a chance to talk about the mission, the airplane, and all of the amazing views that can be captured in the deserts of Arizona. The pilots also talk about flight, aviation, and what it takes to fly the aircraft. Once at the Radome, the team takes photos to accomplish the mission.

Upon landing back at Scottsdale Airport, the mission team is greeted by the rest of the Hope from Above crew and animal avatar pilots. The flight team conducts a flight debrief in the same conference room as the pre-flight briefing, where the pilots discuss the mission parameters. Then the child pilot is presented with their customized bomber jacket as a result of a successful WWII mission.

The unforgettable experience is followed up with a forever friendship between the animal avatar pilot and the child pilot so they can always relive their flight and the friendship of their comrades in battle whenever they feel like reminiscing or just being a pilot again. The bond between pilots is strong, and our children pilots will always remember their animal squadron always on watch, providing that much-needed cover into enemy territory.
