14th Flying Training Wing hosts Pilot for a Day
Derrick James, 8-year-old Pilot for a Day participant, shakes hands with Col. John Nichols, 14th Flying Training Wing Commander, after receiving his flight suit and having his patches pinned on by Nichols Dec. 22 at Columbus Air Force Base, Mississippi. During the day, James and his family learned about the base’s mission, visited static aircraft displays, toured various units and ended the day “flying” in a T-6 Texan II simulator.
