We tried to fly as direct as possible letting controllers and the leader Macksolo of the formation dealing with proper clearances. No formation take-off allowed in Kortrijk but we soon settled in a loose formation, throttled back at 50% engine power yielding about 80 knots IAS.

Pilots must meet equipment and certification requirements and have ATC clearance to enter. Keeping jet traffic safe alongside slower general aviation aircraft is harder still. All aircraft inside the veil must have an operating Mode C transponder and ADS-B Out. Your IFR clearance authorizes you to fly your planned route.
