Travis C-17s On the Way: Local dignitaries, base officials, and base personnel were on hand at Travis AFB, Calif., June 3 for a C-17 demonstration flight in anticipation of the arrival in August of the first of the base’s 13 new airlifters, reports the Vacaville (Calif.) Reporter. The C-17s will join the base’s C-5s and KC-10s, making Travis one of USAF’s most versatile mobility assets.
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.
