Pakistan Air Force Airmen Academy Korangi Creek (PAAK) is called the "Home of Airmen" of the Pakistan Air Force.[1][2][3] It was PAF Base which imparted only technical training to Aero Apprentices and training of non-technical trades was going on another PAF Bases, so PAF needed to train all airmen at one place. In 2019, It was established as an Academy in which training of all trades is planned.[4]
