According to a recent article in The News Journal, the Delaware Air National Guard “has flown into hot spots all over the world” during its 60-plus year history. The report offers a brief glimpse of the history of the Delaware Air Guard, from its fighter unit days to its present as the 166th Airlift Wing, which narrowly escaped the BRAC 2005 axe. Short, but nice piece.
The Air Force has finished modifying and testing the new VC-25B Bridge aircraft that will serve as a temporary Air Force One, the service announced May 1. All that’s left now is to finish painting the jet before it starts flying this summer.
