Ahem. Nobody seems to have noticed that the USAF was flying the Slingsby T-3A "Firefly" primary training aircraft up until it was grounded in 1997 after several fatal crashes. It was subsequently dropped from the program as too dangerous for ab initio training. I believe there may still be a few Cessna T-41s around also. www.brooks.af.mil/web/fec/mfs_history.htmlaeroweb.brooklyn.cuny.edu/specs/slingsby/t-3a.htmClick on the pictures at the bottom of this link for pictures of the T-3As all lined up in storage at Hondo.
