Silverhawk Aids Its Fellow Nebraskans During Floods
The Lincoln-based charter operator volunteered its crews and fleet to provide emergency transport during March flooding.

The Air Charter Safety Foundation this week highlighted the good deeds of one of its members, Silverhawk Aviation of Lincoln, Nebraska, for marshalling its fleet of King Air turboprops and Citation jets and crews to aid Nebraskans from the devastating flooding in March. In one instance, the 28-year-old charter operator employed five of its airplanes and 11 pilots and crewmembers to operate dozens of free flights to the eastern Nebraska community of Fremont, which had been cut off by rising floodwaters.
