The Midfield facility project consists of a renovation and expansion to Building 9231 at the U.S. Air Force Academy, Colorado Springs, Colorado. Once complete it will consolidate the pilot-training elements of the cadet training mission into a single facility. The new spaces will include briefing and training rooms, flight planning and debriefing rooms, offices and dispatch. The facility will be used for conducting glider training for USAFA cadets, as well as housing the Aerobatic Demonstration Team and the elite Sailplane Racing Team.
