USAF, USN Show at Dubai: UAE invited the US Air Force and US Navy to participate in its Dubai Air Show, which many say is close behind the Farnborough and Paris air shows. The US forces have sent some 300 airmen and sailors and more than 20 different aircraft to Dubai, which ends Nov. 24. Buchanan said that the invitation “reflects the very special relationship we have with one of our closest coalition partners in the region.”
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.
