Lt. Gen. Brooks Bash, vice commander of Air Mobility Command, ferried the first C-5M Super Galaxy to its new home at the 60th Air Mobility Wing at Travis AFB, Calif., last week from Lockheed Martin’s facility in Marietta, Ga. Lockheed has delivered 19 of a total of 52 Super Galaxies to the Air Force, but this is the first for the West Coast, states a May 8 company release.
The Air Force is on track to reach its annual goal of graduating 1,500 new pilots that had proved elusive to this point, one year after the service launched a sweeping overhaul of its undergraduate pilot training program, Air Education and Training Command said Sept. 14.
