agree  RitaZ: This is the best explanation of the word, in my opinion. Although both answers are good, the way I see it слетаны implies experience. Flying well together can occur with or without it. They can just fly well together naturally. This is to convince you :)

fly well together


Explanation:
as in "fly so well together that" — If it is seen that the two birds fly so well together that they may be permitted to feed on the quarry at the same time, it is well to allow it. — http://goo.gl/PyC0O
