Textron Aviation has designated Signature Aviation as the exclusive FBO sponsor for this year’s Special Olympics Airlift, to be held this June in Minnesota. The Wichita-based airframer has organized the airlift, which unites the aviation community and has transported more than 10,000 athletes to the Special Olympics USA Games since 1987.

As part of the world’s largest peacetime airlift, Textron will mobilize more than 100 volunteer Cessna, Beechcraft, and Hawker owners and pilots to carry participating athletes and their coaches to the games on Friday, June 19, and return them home on Saturday, June 27.
