Arkansas Civil Air Patrol issued the following announcement on Feb. 5.
Civil Air Patrol is participating for the 22nd straight year in an exercise to help the U.S. Air Force ensure the safety and security of airspace around SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, and Super Bowl LVI, slated for Feb. 13.
To help train Air Force fighter aircrews and maintain their proficiency, CAP flies its aircraft into simulated restricted airspace, playing the role of a trespassing aircraft as the Air Force jet crews practice intercept techniques. The Air Force pilots fly alongside the CAP plane, make radio contact, and guide it out of the restricted airspace. These training flights are scheduled to occur between Feb. 7 and Feb. 10.
