Description

You are invited to be a part of history! On June 2nd, we will celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Air Force Flight Test Center at the Edwards Air Force Base Dining Out. When the AFFTC was established here on June 25, 1951, Edwards AFB was already the recognized center of American flight research, test and development, with the first flight of the XP-59A here in October 1942 and Chuck Yeager's supersonic breakthrough in the X-1 in October 1947. From the F-86 to the F-22, the B-52 to the B-2, the C-124 to the C-17, and from the X-1 to the X-15 and the Space Shuttle, the AFFTC has played a pre-eminent role in forging the future of the U.S. Air Force and, indeed, the world of aerospace in general. For more than five decades, the AFFTC has been on the cutting edge of every major development that has transformed the field of flight the turbojet revolution, the supersonic and hypersonic breakthroughs, the space revolution, systems revolution and, more recently, the stealth revolution. This Dining Out is a much anticipated event which will commemorate the history of aviation and also build camaraderie with customs and traditions dating back more than 2000 years.
