Events Of Interest: A list of local events of interest to
chapter members and other pilots is available here. The full list
is on the events page, but here are the next few:
Collings Foundation Living History Weekend:
For several years now we've helped the Collings Foundation with their
annual June open house. This year they decided to add a second event,
a WWII themed living history weekend. As usual, we manned the grills for
both days and it would appear that this weekend brought the biggest crowds
ever. For a look, see the
photo gallery
of the event.
2007 Myricks Fly-In: Our annual chapter fly-in to Myricks
Airport in Berkley was held on Sunday, September 16, 2007. We
arranged for our usual great weather and served up lots of burgers
and hotdogs to the hungry crowds. For a look at this year's fly-in,
see the
photo gallery
of the event.
Meetings: Club meetings are held on the last Monday of each month
year round at 7:00 p.m. somewhere on the airport property,
