Default Sorties

Fox news reports that in the last 24 hours, coalition aircraft have flown 1850 strike sorties. That equals 77.08 an hour or 1 1/4 every minute. To me that is astounding. That has to rival many of the international airports here in American. I do realize that they are not all being flown from the same location, but it all has to come together somewhere sometime and add up at the end. My hat is off to the aircrews and pilots that are making all this happen!
