As part of the Air Force’s commemoration of its 60th anniversary, Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne launched a special 60th anniversary artwork exhibit at the Pentagon last week. Several Air Force Art Program artists attended the small ribbon-cutting event. Among them was renowned aviation artist Keith Ferris, who said that the artists in the program “have a real responsibility to do a painting that is going to last for 200 years or more.” The special exhibit is located in the Air Force-maintained section of the Pentagon.
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.
