	The Independence Flight is commanded by the CAG (Commander - Air Group) [[Jorey, Brayden\|Lt. JG Brayden Jorey]]. The CAG is supported by the DCAG (Deputy Commander - Air Group) [[Rysegard, John\|Ensign John Rysegard]] and the OAG (Operations - Air Group) [[Hobbs, Ryan\|Ensign Ryan Hobbs]]. The Air Group is made up of Starfleet Officers who have agreed to do double-duty between their primary department (Security, Engineering, etc.) and the Independence Flight.

	The Independence Flight is made up of three squadrons: Freedom Squadron (Lead by the CAG), Justice Squadron (Lead by the DCAG), and Opportunity Squadron (Lead by the Senior Pilot). Each squadron is made up of two flights (pairs of fighters) for a total of four fighters per squadron. Each fighter is made up of a Pilot and a Tactical Systems ~~Officer~~ (TSO) in the second seat. However, in an emergency situation a fighter can be manned by just a pilot. On the USS Tiger, maintenance and engineering crew are not assigned to a specific fighter, as is normally the case, but rather share responsibility for all fighters in order to conserve resources. When the Independence Flight is deployed the OAG reports to the bridge (often taking the Helm position) to coordinate the action with the Tiger.
