Aviation

Lincoln Electric is an offical sponsor of the AeroShell Aerobatic Team. The Aeroshell team has been performing for over twenty years, amassing thousands of hours in front of airshow fans all over North America. The team consists of Alan Henley, Mark Henley, Steve Gustafson, Gene McNeely, Bryan Regan, and Jimmy Fordham.

Lincoln Electric is an official sponsor of Franklin’s Flying Circus.  Kyle was wing walking on his father’s airplane when he was a toddler and learned to fly at the age of eight.   Kyle was the youngest professional wing walker on the planet. 

Most pilots only put a wingtip on the ground during ground loops. Kyle Franklin does it for fun so often, that his cub needs skid plates taped on the wingtips! This is truly a show stealing act.
