The Oregon Air National Guard’s 142nd Fighter Wing will conduct routine F-15 night training missions today through Thursday in the evenings. Training flights will be completed each evening before 10:30 p.m., according to a news release.

Night training allows the F-15 Eagle jet fighter pilots based at the Portland Air National Guard Base to stay current with mandatory Air Force requirements. Night flying is conducted almost monthly and provides essential training for nighttime maneuvers.
