Lincoln First Responders and pilots at the Lincoln Airport have been working to get improvements in place that will allow flight operations in inclement weather. Representative Becky Beard has been very helpful. She has traveled to Lincoln and met several times with stakeholders. Montana aviation industry representatives are preparing a bill for the 2019 Legislative session to increase funding for the Montana Aeronautics Division (MAD) that owns the Lincoln Airport. With increased MAD funding the odds are better that the Lincoln Airport will receive improvements to facilitate all-weather operation. Access will improve for Medevac, Forest Service, and law enforcement flights among others. I look forward to working with Representative Becky Beard during the 2019 Legislative session to secure the funding for the MAD and the Lincoln Airport.
