Saudi military students resume US flight training
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Military students from Saudi Arabia have resumed flight training at U.S. bases, nearly three months after a Saudi trainee shot and killed three U.S. Navy sailors at Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida.
The U.S. Navy said in a statement that flight training for the Saudi students resumed Tuesday. The training for about 850 Saudis at multiple U.S. bases was suspended December 10, four days after the deadly shooting.
Operational training, such as flying and other non-classroom instruction, was allowed to restart once additional safety restrictions were put in place.
