USAF has decided to scrap all 110 of its Slingsby T67 basic trainers. The Firefly went into service in 1993 and had 3 crashes in 4 years that killed 3 cadets and 3 instructors. All USAF Fireflys were grounded in 1997. USAF will scrap the airframes rather than sell them to eliminate liability of future crashes.
