Fuselage overlap, goddammit! 

There [u]will be[/u] fuselage overlap for takeoff and landing.

Watch a really shitty formation takeoff (or landing) sometime - the wing
will string out a long way back, because it "feels good".  Dangerous -

Pilots this shitty shouldn't be allowed to possess property or live in
