C-27J training operations center opens: "Air Force, Army and community officials celebrated the opening of a new cargo plane schoolhouse Dec. 9, here.
The C-27J Joint Cargo Aircraft Schoolhouse will be used to train pilots of the C-27J, the new cargo plane used to reduce the need for ground convoys in dangerous areas.
After years of development by the Army, the C-27J Spartan program has shifted to the Air Force, but will be a joint program and both Army and Air Force pilots and loadmasters will attend the school."
