No word on Ellsworth yet, I see.
I know the congress folk here are pushing pretty hard to gain a couple UAV squadrons for the base.
They are adding more civilian and military positions out west.

This is only a partial list.

http://www.airforce-magazine.com/Pages/default.aspx has more detailed info.

Cannon AFB does not have any F-22's. So, something doesn't appear right with the list at least with respect to Cannon.

I thought Cannon disestablished it's fighter role and went AFSOC?

There goes my spidey sense tingling again: Why on earth does Edwards have nearly a squadron full of gliders? I know the test pilot school has some cool hardware, but 9 gliders?

It did. I am based at Cannon.

There are no fighters at Cannon any longer and have not been for several years.

That's why I am bringing a question about the accuracy of the list that was published by the news source. Since I can so easily question the information for Cannon, it leads me to wonder about the accuracy of the information for the other bases.
