Sundown flights are conducted as a military tradition for retiring aircraft. The Marine Corps is phasing-out the CH-46E and replacing it with the MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft. The CH-46Es are a part of Marine Medium Tiltorotor Squadron 262, Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force.
