My name is Ron and I plan on taking a powered paragliding course. For future reference, I wondered if Warbonnet could be used for powered paragliding and there wasn't a phone #, so I thought I'd leave this message. My email is rheckens@live.com. Thanks for your time on this.
I spent some time in Beatrice on business. Friendliest FBO staff I've ever seen. I landed in 2010 during the summer heat wave, and I was literally dead on my feet after 8 hours in a 100+ degree plane. The woman working at the FBO told me to go inside and get some free ice water and she would refuel my airplane (at the self service pump) and find me a place to stay overnight. They charged me fuel at the self-service rate, even though they put the fuel in for me. I've been back a few times and every time Beatrice is always as friendly as it was the first time.
The Lincoln airport was the scene of the action for the 1970 movie "Airport", based on Arthur Hailey's novel of the same name. The movie was apparently not shot here; the airport scenes were filmed in MSP.

Easy security, very pricey once you're through it. A terminal has a little more than B terminal.
Good fuel prices and very nice FBO
