OUR HISTORY

 
MATS/MAC/AMC "AIRLIFT RODEO"
 
 

The Air Mobility Rodeo is a biennial, international airlift competition organized to improve tactics in a competitive environment. Hosted by the United States Air Force's Air Mobility Command  the Rodeo gathers Airlift wings from active duty, reserve, and Air National Guard units throughout the Air Force and International units from around the World. In the competitive environment, units are able to demonstrate capabilities, improve procedures, compare notes, and enhance standardization for global operations. The competition also tests the flight and ground skills of security forces, aerial port operations, aeromedical evacuation, aircraft maintenance and Finance Management.
