Base Tours
The 355th Fighter Wing offers organized group tours. Certain conditions and restrictions apply to all base tours. Here are a few to consider: Tours are booked on a first-come, first-served basis. Tours are not provided to individuals or non-organized groups. To request a base tour, a "Community Relations Request Form" (Community Relations Request Form PDF version) must be completed. If your organization has any questions please contact our community relations office at (520)228-3378.
The Speaker's Bureau
The Speaker's Bureau gives Air Force personnel the chance to directly interact with its neighbors in the community, professional organizations, schools, businesses and civic organizations. Our speakers consist of personnel from a wide-array of job descriptions and include personnel from the rank of Airman First Class to Colonel. Most organizations request speakers to talk about the A-10s, Davis-Monthan's mission, specific job descriptions or deployment and personal experiences in the Air Force.
To request a speaker please fill out the "Community Relations Request Form" (Community Relations Request Form PDF version) and email to 355wgpa@dm.af.mil. We will try to match up a speaker to your specific request. Requests should be made at least four weeks in advance. .
Active-duty personnel wishing to join the speaker's bureau can call community relations at (520) 228-3378.
Aerial Event Requests
Community relations helps facilitate flyovers and static display requests; however the process does not start at Davis-Monthan. To start a flyover request y a DD Form 2535 must be submitted on-line at www.airshows.pa.hq.af.mil and receive approval from the Air Force Aerial Events office at the Pentagon. Davis-Monthan AFB can only consider your request after you have approval from the Pentagon. Flyovers are considered for aviation-related events and patriotic observances held in conjunction with Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, POW/MIA Day, or Veterans Day (event must be within seven days of the actual holiday dates to be considered). There are some exceptions to policies; those not meeting the criteria can possibly be approved one-time only as an Exception-to-Policy event, provided there is sufficient rationale for support.
For the local Tucson/Phoenix metropolitan area FAA representative please call (480) 419-0111 X234 or fax (480) 419-0800. The request process takes approximately 60 days to complete.
