Once again co-ed teams of 12 will attempt to pull a Frontier Airlines E190 aircraft 15 feet across the tarmac in less than 10 seconds. The event will again take place at the Frontier Airlines Maintenance Facility at 555 Air Cargo Way, Milwaukee.

The Bob and Brian Plane Pull is presented by Frontier Airlines and Laacke & Joys. Teams will compete for the top prize of complimentary roundtrip travel to any Frontier Airlines destination compliments of the airline. The second place team will receive day packs from The North Face compliments of Laacke & Joys.

Last year’s event raised $10,300 for the MACC Fund bringing the cumulative total from Plane Pull donations to just under $67,000. Sponsorship opportunities are available; please contact Donna Schnapp at (414) 456-5831.
