About

The Coast Guard Aviation Training Center (ATC) in Mobile, Alabama is a multi-mission unit, acting as the Coast Guard’s aviation and capabilities development center, as well as an operational air station. Training is conducted to qualify Coast Guard pilots in the MH-60 “Jayhawk”, the MH-65 “Dolphin”, the HC-130 Hercules, the HC-130J Hercules, and the HC-144 “Ocean Sentry.” All pilots initially trained at ATC return once a year for a one-week proficiency course in their designated airframe.

Serving within the Coast Guard’s Force Readiness Command Training Division (FC-T), the ATC Mobile evaluation center is responsible for ensuring that Coast Guard aviation forces are using the best equipment and tactics to successfully complete all required missions. The Operations Department operates under the tactical control of the Eighth Coast Guard District and has an area of responsibility that extends from the Louisiana/Texas border to the eastern edge of the Florida panhandle.
