Beginner flight training takes place well away from populated areas and it kinda doesn't involve 747s. Ever. It involves such machines as the T-38 (the T stands for Trainer, whereas the F in F-16 stands for fighter. Those military guys are kinda creative!), which is a tiny little fuck of a jet plane.
The training most likely involved close intercept with a large transport airplane, or the escort thereof.
(I hang out with the people at the Defense Attaché Office at the Embassy pretty frequently, the military aren't all baby-killers)

Thanks for clarifying. When I think of training, I think of people who are less than 2 months experienced. This does help the image in my head a bit.

In the military or training to be a commercial pilot, you spend years in simulators and in dual-control planes with instructors before you ever even get in a Trainer by yourself. Delta Airlines has some of the nicest commercial flight simulators I have ever been inside on their wee campus over by the airport (my dad works in the next building).

JOHNNY IS GA-AY, JOHNNY IS GA-AY, JOHNNY IS GA-AY, JOHNNY IS GA-AY, JOHNNY IS GA-AY, JOHNNY IS GA-AY!
On topic: man, that's one fucked up idea. That's like having a plane show with WW2 bomber planes in Guernica.

In 1947.
