How are the Synchro Pair pilots chosen?
The Synchro Leader (Red 6) is a third year pilot (Flight Lieutenant Jim Turner in 2007) and he is allowed to choose his own Number 2. The Synchro 2 (Red 7) one year will become Synchro Leader the following year. Thus, Synchro 2 in 2007, Flight Lieutenant Pablo O’Grady, will become Synchro Leader for 2008 and he will be able to choose his Number 2 for 2008 from one of the three first year pilots in 2007 who want the job.
