Laughlin Heritage Corner: January
In the early 90s, the T-1A Jayhawk was brought to Laughlin to support the then-new Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training or SUPT program. The first one arrived on Nov. 19, 1993, with the program getting underway over the course of the next year. On Jan. 17, 1995, Laughlin received its last T-1, completing the fleet and fully equipping the 86 FTS with the aircraft that they would need to perform their mission. Just last month we re-completed our T-1 fleet when the last of the 2016 hailstorm-damaged T-1s returned to Laughlin after getting repaired. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Jeffrey Allen)
