“Ford’s support of EAA and AirVenture has allowed thousands of young people to discover, enjoy, and pursue aviation,” Dave Chaimson, EAA’s vice president of marketing and business development, said. “The unique F-22 version of the tremendously popular Ford F-150 Raptor truck will be an enormously popular highlight of the Gathering of Eagles auction, and we’re very grateful for Ford’s support for our initiatives.”
This F-150 Raptor is a new look at Ford’s tradition of building unique vehicles in support of EAA’s youth aviation programs. — Melvin Betancourt, Ford
“This F-150 Raptor is a new look at Ford’s tradition of building unique vehicles in support of EAA’s youth aviation programs,” Melvin said. “We know this truck will create an unmatched buzz around this year’s Gathering of Eagles auction.”
So far, these unique Ford vehicles have raised over $3 million for the Young Eagles, which has helped the program offer flights to over 2 million young people. This one-off F-22 Raptor will hit the auction block at the annual Gathering of Eagles at the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2017 on Thursday July 27 in the hopes of adding to that tally. You can bid in person or over the phone during the auction if you prequalify with EAA’s development office at (800) 236-1025 or [email protected].
