Flyover and Static Display Requests: Fixed-wing aircraft (Airplanes) are requested through the Air Force Public Affairs Aerial Events Website:

If you would like the 152nd Airlift Wing to perform either a flyover or static display at your event, please submit your request through the U.S. Air Force Aerial Events website: http://www.airshows.pa.hq.af.mil/. The Flyover requests will need FAA approval (see below); however the Static Display requests do NOT require FAA approval.

For assistance with this request process, contact the Public Affairs Office: 775-788-4515.

Once your request is submitted, you will receive the following text in an email:

NOTE: Aircraft availability depends on training schedules, mission requirements and crew availability. An approved request does not guarantee aircraft availability.

• Your request should be submitted 90 days prior to the event to be considered for support. Less than 90 days’ notice greatly reduces the chance that support will be available. Requests received within 30 days of the event will NOT be considered.
• Army and Air Force approvals are only for aircraft from the respective service. An organization wishing to have an event approved for either Army National Guard or Air National Guard aircraft must submit a request to each service (the Air Guard can only consider events approved by the Air Force and the Army Guard can only consider events approved by the Army).

Military Funeral Flyover Requests: Funeral flyover requests are made directly to the Air Force Mortuary Affairs:

The request must be submitted by a family member or the representative on behalf of the family.

An email can be sent to the family liaison at Air Force Mortuary Affairs, if working with one, or to AFMAO.HG.HONORGUARD@us.af.mil. Their phone number is 302-363-7704. The request needs the details of the service and must include the Airman's biography.

Aircraft availability depends on training schedules, mission requirements and crew availability. An approved request does not guarantee aircraft availability.

All requests for Honor Guard at military funeral events go through Beale Air Force Base here: https://www.bealefss.com/honor-guard/

For questions about this process, you can contact them by email: 9RW.beale.honorguard@us.af.mil or by phone: (530) 634-3346
