Here is some feedback from EAA headquarters regarding the Grassroots Tour. Tom Johnson was trying to get them to stop in Lincoln after their stop in Tarkio, MO.
Hi, Tom:
Had the opportunity to chat with Rod about his schedule late yesterday afternoon. We took that weekend and turned it every way we could, trying to find a way to make it work. Unfortunately, with AirVenture looming, EAA in-office commitments and his family schedule, we just couldn’t find a way to get him to Lincoln and back to Oshkosh in an adequate way. Even the visit to Tarkio might be a very limited stop that weekend.
I’m not sure what Plan B might be either, but let’s keep thinking what might work later in the year.
Thanks for your patience and understanding. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Best,
Dick
