U.S. Senator James Inhofe (R-Oklahoma) and Congresswoman Mary Fallin (R-Oklahoma) along with Mark Kranenburg, Director of Airports, celebrate the opening of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s new national aviation training facility at Will Rogers World Airport. Fallin and Inhofe told a crowd of 200, which included top military brass, how proud they were of Oklahoma’s role in fighting the war on terror.

The National Air Training Center will spearhead specialized aviation training of all CBP pilots and air crew. The center will bring in advanced personnel from throughout the nation who will then return to their duty station and train others.
