The second pilot simulator will be relocated from Pease ANGB to Pittsburgh ANGB, Pennsylvania, in October 2016. The third pilot simulator is scheduled to be relocated from McConnell AFB to Rickenbacker ANGB in October 2017. A decision on the relocation of the remaining simulator is expected at a later date.AMC operates 19 KC-135 pilot flight simulators and nine BOWSTs at 13 regional sites worldwide to support 42 KC-135 units.
