-The Motorpool manages all of the golf carts on the field used by the Airshow. Based on the Logistics Requests provided to Airshow Operations we order the carts from our Vendor. Complete, Clear, and Accurate responses to this survey are critical to ensuring everyone has what they need to make the show run smoothly and efficiently. Nobody likes surprises at Zero Dark hundred hours on a show day.

-The Motorpool is also here to help transport Staff and Volunteers on a dispatched basis. If you have a need to move people or things and your team doesn't have a golf cart or needs more capacity, we are here to assist and can be reached via the Ham net or the Pilot Shuttle/Motorpool frequency on your Airshow Radio. Medical, Heros & Legends, and Volunteers (Carol Lee) have made extensive use of this service on a yearly basis.
