Many RNLAF fighter pilots received part of their training at Sheppard AFB in T-37Bs of 89 FTS / 80th FTW "Banshees" (or Burma Banshees, as they were called since their WWII combat experience in Burma, designated 80 FG, while operating P-40s, P-47s and P-38s). This one was shipped to the Netherlands to be preserved at the National Military Museum.

The 89th Flying Training Squadron "Banshees" is part of the 80th Flying Training Wing based at Sheppard AFB (TX). From 2007 onwards, the Tweety was replaced by the T-6 Texan II in conducting flight training. The squadron supports undergraduate pilot training for US and allied students from, 1973-1981 and has been part of the Euro-NATO Joint Pilot Training Program since October 1981.
