Net-centric weather integration (NCWI) is one of the leading initiatives being tested during the Joint Expeditionary Force Experiment 2006 at Nellis AFB, Nev. The Air Force Weather Agency wants to demonstrate the delivery of critical, time sensitive weather information to the Combined Air and Space Operations Center through Tactical Targeting Network Technology (TTNT)—an Internet-based high speed network. With NCWI, weather is fully integrated into CAOC processes and allows heads-up weather information for operators, said Maj. Dean Carter, the senior weather officer for JEFX 06.
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.
