The twin-jet T-37 was the first primary jet trainer to serve with the USAF. And the much-loved T-38 Talon which first flew in 1959 is still the mainstay supersonic jet trainer for the Air Force.Find out more about the T-33 Shooting Star, the T-37 Tweet, and the T-38 Talon.Open Cockpit weekends at the Pacific Coast Air Museum are your chance to get up close to selected aircraft and look inside.
