  • The 27th Flying Training Wing was a training formation of the United States Army Air Forces. From 1943–45 it was assigned to Eastern Flying Training Command. In 1945–46 it was assigned to the Western Flying Training Command, and it was disbanded on 15 December 1945 at Randolph Field, Texas. The wing directed flying training at Flight Schools in the Southeastern United States. While its direct superior, regional flying training command did change twice, ultimately it was part of Army Air Forces Training Command. The assigned schools provided phase II basic flying training for Air Cadets Graduates of the advanced schools 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 the Interior. As training requirements changed during the war, and schools were activated and inactivated or transferred to meet those requirements. The schools primarily flew the Vultee BT-13 / BT-15 Valiant for basic flying instruction. In 1945, the North American AT-6 Texan was also used. Some of the schools later converted to four-engine B-24 transition and single-engine fighter transition schools The wing was disbanded in June 1946. There is no lineage link, according to official U.S. Air Force lineage rules, between the 27th Fighter Wing (now the 27th Special Operations Wing), established on 28 July 1947 at Kearney Army Airfield, Nebraska, and the 27th FTW.
