Whether you fly, build, restore or simply enjoy airplanes and aviation, you are welcome to attend our events or join our chapter. We are a group of aviation enthusiasts, aircraft builders, and pilots who get together with like minded people to share ideas, exchange information, encourage safety, serve the local aviation community and have a lot of fun doing so. Please come to our next meeting or event as our guest.
Meeting on Saturday, November 9, starting at 9:30am: Winterizing your plane and flying
This month’s chapter meeting will focus on icing, anti-icing, and de-icing as it relates to general aviation. Don’t fly in ice! Or get out of it as quickly as possible.
Members will have a chance to discuss their experiences and advice concerning winter flying. Cool fall weather has an effect on engine performance and weather situations, and winter brings another set of variables: icing aerodynamics, snow, runway traction and visibility. When have you checked your engine heaters, carb heat and pitot heat? Lots to talk about. A list of timely articles and sources for additional information will be available. Should be a great chance for some thoughtful hangar flying.
Nancy Priebe will have the new Chapter 145 logo gear available.
Doors open at 9:30am for “hangar talk” and the presentation will begin at 10:00am.
