Past Chapter 88 Practice Day - June 20, 2020
Members attended: Wayne Buescher (Staudacher S600F), Jason Ledbetter (Bücker JUngmann) and Hugo Ritzenthaler (Staudacher Pitts S1E)
Jason flew for his Intermediate SMOOTH Patch and received the award. Congratulations, Jason. Although, a low turn out, we had a good practice session. A pilot briefing and a document check preceded the practice flying and flight critiquing.
