Maxwell Air Force Base — Montgomery, United States

Maxwell Air Force Base, coded MXF, is located in Montgomery, Alabama, and serves as a cornerstone of United States Air Force professional military education. It houses Air University, which trains officers throughout their careers, from initial commissioning programs to senior leadership development at the Air War College. MXF is not a civilian airport and handles no scheduled commercial passenger traffic; its runway and facilities support military transport aircraft, training flights, and official government travel. The base has a long history dating to the early twentieth century, including ties to the Wright brothers' flying school. As an active military installation, MXF remains central to Air Force doctrine development and leadership education rather than public aviation.
