Beech T-1A
Jayhawk |
|
The T-1A Jayhawk is a medium-range, twin-engine
jet trainer, a version of the Beech 400A. It is was the
first new training aircraft procured by the Air Force in 30
years. The first aircraft was delivered to Reese Air Force
Base, Texas in January 1992. It is used to train student
pilots to fly airlift or tanker aircraft. Student training
in the T-1A began at Reese in 1993.
The Jayhawk has cockpit
seating for an instructor and two students and is powered by
twin turbofan engines capable of an operating speed of Mach
.73. The T-1A differs from its commercial
counterpart by having a single-point refueling system and
increased bird strike protection in the windshield and leading
edges for sustained low-level operation. The T-1A is used
at all undergraduate pilot training bases: Columbus AFB, Miss.;
Laughlin AFB, Texas; and Vance AFB, Okla. It is also used at
Randolph AFB, Texas, to train instructor pilots.
