Air Force grounds T-34C trainers follow crash
Posted on 2026-06-03 08:15:13
The Air Force has grounded all of its T-34C trainers pending safety checks
following a crash at the Gangshan Air Base in Kaohsiung that left two pilots
dead.

The two-seater aircraft crashed while conducting a routine simulated
engine-failure training exercise.

Both Lt. Col. Lu Chi-yu and Lt. Col. Kuo Chun-nan were pronounced dead at the
scene.

The pilots had logged over 2,000 flying hours in T-34Cs.

According to Air Force Chief Inspector Major General Chiang Yi-cheng, the
pilots reported no anomalies or malfunctions during the flight test and
weather conditions, including visibility, were suitable for flying.

The aircraft passed a round of safety checks on April 9.

The Air Force has formed a special task force to investigate the cause of the
crash.

The Air Force purchased about 50 T-34Cs in 1985 as basic trainer aircraft.

Around 30 remain in service.
