Air Force Reserve Command’s 927th Air Refueling Wing at Selfridge ANGB, Mich., last week began the formal transfer of its KC-135s to the Air National Guard’s 127th Wing, also at Selfridge. The Detroit News reports that the two reserve components are working well together. The 127th Wing began shedding its C-130s this fall and now is learning the ways of the tanker from the 927th, which will be heading south to become an associate unit with the active duty 6th Air Mobility Wing at MacDill AFB, Fla.
The last remaining T-1 Jayhawk at JBSA-Randolph, Texas, took its final flight to the "Boneyard" at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., on July 15. The 99th Flying Training Squadron will train pilots using T-6 and simulator until it gets T-7 Red Hawk in fiscal 2026.
