We’ve been asked to assemble another ramp crew as we did such a great job with the Trimotor. We need people for the Lincoln Airfest, June 11. Good news – as part of the ramp crew, you save the $10 admission fee.

This is a 1 day event and we only need a crew of at least 12 pilot types, plus a number of relief guys, to marshal aircraft onto and out of the ramp area. The entire length of the ramp will be used to park aircraft.

If you can only work for a few hours, you would be valuable as a relief person.

There will be display aircraft, war-birds, helicopters and aircraft in and out for the airshow.

We will have an FAA approved ground frequency, so we’ll need a number of handheld radios to communicate with pilots and other ‘rampies’, when the incoming aircraft are told to change frequency from the CTAF to the ground frequency.

Remember that EAA Chapter 1541 is doing the early morning pancake breakfast, so you may not be able to do both of these activities.

The pancake breakfast begins at 07:00 and the aircraft and cars begin arriving at 08:00. Opening ceremonies are scheduled for 10:00 and formation fly-overs will begin at 11:00. The event closes at 15:00.
