Another attempt at a sensible answer; in my time on the Tonka, we would usually use either an Arrow formation or maybe Chivenor Battle but it would probably look more like a gaggle. Main thing was....give yourself enough space to not hit anyone.

Sadly, that didn't work on a trail across Canada when 1 Tonka collided with another. 1 landed safely, the other didn't. Both crew members ejected but nearly died from exposure before they were rescued.
