Hello Chapter Members
We have a lot of events coming up soon and I hope you can participate.
- The regular Saturday chapter flyout to Eloy turned out to be a great event. We had to deal with some early morning fog but after it lifted we had fantastic flying weather. We met at the Bent Prop Restaurant and conducted a little chapter business. Your chapter leadership from 2023 were recognized for their efforts by presenting pins and certificates to them. The skydiving school briefed us on their operation. The Eloy skydiving operation is a very interesting place. If you haven't been, be sure and check it out sometime. Don Daubert presented a short maintenance program that reminded us how to make proper maintenance record entries. After lunch at the Bent Prop we enjoyed the rest of the day observing the skydivers. It was very relaxing. To top it off the flight home on a beautiful Arizona spring day.
- On April 6th we will have our second annual Flymart in the Chandler Aviation hangar. Put the word out to your hangar neighbors and get ready to bring in items that have been laying around too long. We can also use more volunteers to help set up on Friday afternoon and run the event and clean up Saturday. If you can volunteer, let me know you are able to help by email, call or text so I know who to expect.
- Another flyout chapter meeting will be held in April at the Casa Grande terminal. We will meet there at 10am on April 20, 2024. After the short meeting we will enjoy a chapter provided lunch and social time. If you missed Eloy, be sure to flyin or drive to Casa Grande for the April chapter gathering.
