Pacific Aerospace -CT/4A Air Trainer

In 1971, the Royal Australian Air Force had a requirement for a new aircraft to replace their current basic training aircraft - the CAC Winjeels. In 1973, 51 CT/4A trainers were delivered to the RAAF to be used as the basic air trainer at Point Cook airfield where Basic Flying Training School (BFTS) was located.

The CT/4's have proved to be a capable and effective training platform since first entering service with the RAAF. From 1973 through to 2019 the RAAF utilised the CT/4 trainers to provide flight training to all Pilot Officer's beginning their Military Aviation career as an Army, Navy or Airforce aviator.
