On August 21, 2023, the Central Mississippi Composite Squadron MS-100 of the Civil Air Patrol will begin meeting at a new location.

Our new location will be in Building 236 on the 172d Air National Guard Base located at 141 Military Drive, Jackson. Located on the north side of the main Jackson airport. Our move will provide building space for the unit to continue its steady growth.

The Civil Air Patrol offers a hands-on opportunity to learn the core values of: Integrity, Volunteer Service, Excellence, and Respect while focusing on all aspects of Aviation.
