U.S. Air Force 2nd Lt. Alina H. Vanecek and family members talk with Lt. Gen. Brad Webb, Air Education and Training Command commander, following her graduation from Specialized Undergraduate Helicopter Pilot Training, Class 21-05, at Fort Rucker, Alabama, June 22, 2021. Seven officers received their pilot’s wings, becoming the first Air Force officers to earn their wings from a helicopter-only syllabus since 1993. HTN is one initiative of the Pilot Training Transformation effort and was developed to create quality pilots, while increasing the Air Force’s overall pilot production. The HTN graduates began their training August 2020 as part of a small group who went directly to Fort Rucker for TH-1 training. HTN is one aspect of the AETC Pilot Training Transformation efforts that include Undergraduate Pilot Training 2.5, Accelerated Path to Wings, Remote SIM Instruction, Civil Path to Wings and Alternate Path to Wings.
