Training Wing 2 'FITU' (Blue Tri)

Training Air Wing TWO (TW-2 or TRAWING 2) is a USN aircraft training air wing based aboard Naval Air Station Kingsville, Texas. TW-2 is one of five training air wings in the Naval Air Training Command, and consists of two jet training squadrons. The wing trains Student Naval Aviators from the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, and international allies. Following completion of primary flight training and selection of an advanced training pipeline, Student Naval Aviators are assigned to TW-2 for either intermediate and advanced strike pipeline training or advanced E-2/C-2 training in the T-45C Goshawk jet training aircraft. Some are selected for immediate upgrade and are enrolled in the FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR TRAINING UPGRADE (FITU) and are awarded this blue, triangular patch. This one does not have velcro attached.
