What is Baseops?

Baseops is short for Base Operations. There is a Baseops located at every military airfield in the world. Baseops is where aircrews go to mission plan, check weather, and file their flight plans. Baseops.net is your virtual online version of the Base Operations. We provide pilots the best flight preparation tools, mission planning information, and data available on the Internet. Baseops is maintained to aid aircrews in their flight planning and mission preparation.

It all started during an Operation SOUTHERN WATCH deployment and our crew was planning a mission from the Persian Gulf to Africa. Unfortunately, at our remote location, we had little access to flight planning publications, mission planning software, and no military phone lines. At that point we realized that this information must be out there somewhere on the World Wide Web. Thanks to Al Gore’s invention of the internet, we were able to plan our mission, and we realized how valuable this new resource would become.

Baseops began as an accumulation of links to military flight planning websites and resources on the internet. As technology caught up to the aviation world, flight publications, mission planning materials, and other valuable resources began appearing on the internet. We have accumulated the best aviation resources from official and reputable online sources. Prepare your flight plan, check aviation weather, prepare for your tactical sortie or airdrop, check imagery and official publications, all right here at Baseops.
