An Air Force Flight Standards Agency C-21 crashed around 11:30 a.m. yesterday at the Decatur, Ill. airport. Air Force officials say the two pilots on board were sent to a local hospital for observation. The Herald-Review reports that the two airmen walked away from the crash. The pilots, assigned to AFFSA’s unit at the Will Rogers Air National Guard Station in Oklahoma City, were conducting touch-and-go training at the Decatur airport. The accident is under investigation.
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.
