Air Force Lt. Col. Derek Ligon, deputy commander of the 595th Command and Control Group, said the move to Lincoln’s airport was the logical choice, as it has a nearly 13,000-foot runway that can handle the big planes. And it’s only about an hour’s drive from the base.
Lincoln has served as a temporary home for the planes before. In 2006, the planes were moved to Lincoln during another runway project, and the E-4B planes went back to Lincoln for a short time in the spring of 2019 following widespread flooding that left part of Offutt under water.
Offutt's runway replacement project is expected to take about 18 months.

DAN SCAVINO🇺🇸🦅 Four carriers & escorts in the pacific? Why is that relevant? To prevent other state actors from attempting to harm us during this transition? Russia / China? Or conversely all for NK? Or all three. Think logically about the timing of everything…
