U.S. Air Force Lt Col Michael “Hyde” Trott, 99th Flying Training Squadron commander, and Steve Schmidt, Boeing T-7A Red Hawk pilot, drink a Coca-Cola after during the arrival ceremony at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas, Jan. 9. 2026. Drinking a Coca-Cola is a 99th Flying Training Squadron tradition going back to when it was the famed Tuskegee Airmen’s 99th Pursuit Squadron. Named in honor of the Tuskegee Airmen, the T-7A Red Hawk will be assigned to the 99th Flying Training Squadron “Red Tails” and will integrate into the pilot training pipeline across AETC over the coming years.
