41st Flying Training Squadron

The 41st Flying Training Squadron, originally activated during World War II in 1940, has a distinguished history in the United States Air Force. Initially, it served as a combat unit, operating aircraft such as the B-25 Mitchell in the Pacific Theater. After the war, the squadron underwent several reorganizations and mission changes, eventually being reactivated as a flying training squadron. Today, stationed at Columbus Air Force Base in Mississippi, the 41st Flying Training Squadron specializes in training new pilots using advanced trainer aircraft, continuing its legacy of excellence in preparing Air Force aviators.
