The New York Air National Guard’s wing at Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station formally switched from the 107th Air Refueling Wing to the 107th Airlift Wing on Tuesday, according to a New York State Division of Military and Naval Affairs release. The unit has converted, courtesy of BRAC 2005, from KC-135 tankers to an associate unit, flying and maintaining C-130s alongside Air Force Reserve Command’s 914th Airlift Wing at the station.
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.
