Potential Adair Co. addition to Operation American Resolve

By Mike Keltner, Director
Adair County Emergency Management

An out of county friend to our community has reported a potential late addition to the flight plan of Operation American Resolve on Friday, May 1st, 2020.

As part of Operation American Resolve, the Kentucky Air National Guard will potentially fly over a portion of Columbia and Summit Manor Nursing Home at around 3:15-3:30pmCT on Friday afternoon, May 1, 2020, using a pair of Lockheed C-130 Hercules turboprop transport aircraft.

The flight will cross a large portion of Kentucky and, according to the air guard, is part of a nationwide salute to all those supporting the COVID-19 response efforts.

As we all know weather, route and timing could be altered but if you are available it would be worth keeping an eye on the sky over Columbia in that time frame.

At the appointed time it was announced the planes were running late, then afterward, that they weren't able to make it over the city.
