What is the difference between a Flight and a Squadron? Is it simply a matter of formation size? Bastie 15:28, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
A squadron, depending on it's mission, can consist of from 8 to 24 aircraft. A flight normally consists of four aircraft.
1439 flt. does not have any aircraft permanently assigned to them, it's Tornado F.3's are rotated in from different squadrons with thier crews.
