UNITED STATES AIR FORCE
PILOT TRAINING CLASS 61-DELTA
We maintain this site because no official records of our class are accessible through USAF channels.
If the memories of our past are not passed on, for all intents and purposes they cease to exist.
The class has two other websites, one provided by free service FortuneCity.
We invite your comments and suggestions on what you would like to see.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:
The information and roster data base contained on these pages was the brain child of Dave
Roberts. Dave compiled and maintained the information by hand for quite a while, then
put it on the Apple Computer before most of us knew what an Apple Computer was. I
assumed the the job on an interim basis in 1988. Gil Unangst brought his communications and other creative skills onboard in 1995 and has provided all rosters since.
Thanks also to all those classmates and their wives (who probably did most of the work)
that have kept the data current while hosting reunions.
Our thanks to Enrique Tabyanan. He is a great teacher and without his help, this website would not exist. He has a website at
70th Air Refueling Association.
Thanks to the USAF Thunderbirds for the use of their motion .gif files.

THE WEBSITE FOR USAF PILOT TRAINING
CLASS 61-D
It was worth doing...it is worth remembering...
Our participation in the United States Air Force Pilot Training Program was a life altering event. We feel it worthy of recollection.
During this training we knew that we were in the company of a special breed of young men.
Men of courage. Men destined to lead others in time of adventure and danger.
This site recounts part of the start of that adventure.
It keeps class members up to date on class reunion information and current news about classmates.
It also informs visitors about the class...and it may inspire others to earn their wings.
The database for the class is currently maintained by the webmasters....If you are a member of the class and desire a current roster (with addresses and phone numbers) via e-mail, click here to contact Gil Unangst

The material on each pretty much duplicates this site...
This is your website.
...and please nitpick the errors, it's the best way we find them.
AND YOU CAN BLAME US FOR ALL YOU SEE
