The Elite of the Elite
At Yuma, AZ, WTI's rigorous seven-week training program is in full swing, and top pilots from each Marine squadron are taking to the air. These pilots have always tried to establish themselves as the elite of the elite.
Stick the Landing
As WTI heats up, the Cobras battle a Russian combat helicopter straight out of the movies. Meanwhile, the Huey students must insert Navy Seals at an embassy while contending with an angry mob.
Now or Never
WTI is a gauntlet that can break even the best pilots in America. As the students move into the final weeks of the program, the exercises become larger in scale and the stakes even more intense.
The Big Mish
7 weeks of grueling combat training culminate with one final operation, known as Finex. It's the last opportunity for student pilots to plant a flag as the best of the best before WTI graduation.
