It was last assigned to the Central Flying Training Command, and was disbanded on 16 June 1946 at Ellington Field, Texas. There is no lineage between the United States Air Force 80th Flying Training Wing, established on 13 January 1942 as the 80th Pursuit Group (Interceptor) at Selfridge Field, Michigan and this organization. HistoryThe wing controlled three navigation schools in Texas, and also supported the AAF Glider Pilot School at South Plains.[1] After graduation, Flying Cadets were commissioned as Second Lieutenants, received their "wings" and were reassigned to Operational or Replacement Training Units operated by one of the four Numbered Air Forces in the Zone of Interior (ZI).[1] Lineage
Activated on 25 August 1943 Disbanded on 16 June 1946.[2] Assignments
