117 Combat Wing History
In 1955 the first infrastructure works of the Unit started at Andravida area.
In June 1960 the Killini - Andravida Air Detachment was established.
In March 1961 after a ministerial decision, the 117 Combat Group was formed, with the simultaneous abolition of the Air Detachment. The 339 Sqn was assigned to the Combat Group with F-84F aircraft, coming from Elefsis Airbase.
In May 1969, the 117 Combat Group was renamed to 117 Combat Wing and was chosen for the reception of new fighter F-4E (PHANTOM). For this purpose the older infrastructure was reconstructed and a new was built for the aircraft maintenance and personnel accommodation. In the meantime the 339 Sqn had transferred to 116 CW at Araxos.
In April 1974 the first F-4E aircraft landed at the Unit, while the aircraft delivery was complete by the end of year. The 339 Sqn returned to the Unit along with the 338 Sqn, which had been disbanded up in June 1974. The two Fighter Squadrons 338 and 339, were formed in the Fighter Bomber and Interception role.
In December 1976 the 368 Applied Training Flight was formed with four T-33 aircraft, which operated until March 1989.
In 1978 the construction of the 3rd runway was completed and n November of the same year,the weather RADAR was installed. Ever since the Unit has been organized and operates in the same form as today.
In 1979 the personnel accomodation construction was completed.
In 1991, between August and November, the delivery of 28 new F-4E SRA aircraft was completed and placed under the 338 Sqn. Also, there was a redistribution of the 110 CW old aircraft between the 339 and 337 Squadrons.
