June Gathering Agenda
Officer Updates & Upcoming Events
New Bylaws presented
Safety Topic– Engine Failure After Takeoff, Amy Tytko
Chapter 846 “Build & Fly” Presentation by Ron Lutz, Greg Cantrell and members of the Build & Fly team
Our First Trivia Night!
Congratulations Times 4!
June, 2026
Chapter 846 Bylaws Get a Refresh
Bylaws — not exactly the most thrilling topic, right? But thanks to a fantastic committee — Greg Cantrell, David Manning, and Sherry Tytko — the process was a lot more engaging than you might expect.
It had been six years since anyone took a hard look at our bylaws, and with EAA rolling out new guidelines, the timing felt right for a proper review. The committee came to the project with four things in mind:
1. Bringing the bylaws in line with how we actually operate today,
2. Cleaning up inconsistent language
3. Aligning with EAA's recommendations, where it made sense for our Chapter
4. Writing things flexibly enough that we won't need to revisit them every time something small changes.
After several months of work, the committee put together a revised set of bylaws that we think hits all those marks— and then some. The new version gives the Chapter and its officers stronger protections, clearer guidance, and better handles some of the new realities we're all dealing with, from evolving technology to shifting legal requirements.
The Board has reviewed the revisions and voted to move them forward — but here's the thing: these are your bylaws. The membership gets the final say. We’ll be holding a vote later this summer, so please take a few minutes to look them over before then.
Rescheduled Again!
June, 2026
Young Eagles, May 16 Rescheduled Due to Weather Forecast
May, 2026
We were so excited to work with the North Coast Chapter of the Tuskegee Airmen to introduce so many young people to aviation this Saturday, at Burke Lakefront Airport, but Mother Nature is making it difficult. High winds are forecast followed by storms, so we made the decision to postpone the event to June 6 for everyone's safety.
All registrants should have been notified and their registration transferred to June 6. If that is a bad day for your family, we have two other events scheduled for this summer, as do other local EAA chapters. All area Young Eagle events can be found at https://www.eaachapters.org/. Just enter your zip-code to find events near you. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to see you on June 6th!
May Gathering Date Change
The May Gathering will take place on Wednesday, May 20, 2026, due to a special RANS Day Event. It will also be our first cookout of the Season!

April, 2026
The hangar was renamed the Ryerson Hangar, in honor of Peter and Nanette Ryerson. A plaque remembering Peter and Nanette hangs in the Chapter hangar. Peter passed away March 20, 2026. His obituary is available here. The chapter has made a donation of $250 to Cure Alzheimer’s Fund in Peter’s name. Chapter members are very thankful for the generosity of the Ryerson's, which has allowed Chapter 846 promote our mission as stated on our website, About Us.
We recently received a thank you note from Peter's wife, Nan Ryerson:
To the members of EAA Chapter 846,
Please accept my sincere gratitude for your gift to the Cure Alzheimer’s Fund in honor of my dear late husband, Peter. After accompanying Peter on a years-long journey through Alzheimer’s dementia, I fully recognize it is imperative to do all we can to find a cure for this devastating disease. Your gift will help speed the day of discovery. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your remembrance and generosity.
Nan Ryerson

Ray Scholars Selected for 2026
March 2026
Our March gathering was aglow from the intelligent, interested and committed Ray Scholar applicants presenting themselves to our membership. Luckily, we had two scholarship opportunities available, because choosing between such qualified young people was extremely difficult. Chosen this year to receive scholarships were Amy Tytko and Bridget Lutz. Congratulations, Amy and Bridget!
We certainly hope to see more of all of these young people at future projects and events. They all have amazing talents to share with the Chapter, and we are eager to encourage them on their aviation journey.

February Gathering
We have a special guest for our February Gathering: EAA CEO Jack Pelton will join us by Zoom, Thursday Feb. 12. Because of the recent temperatures and the technology needs of the program, we will be meeting in Skypark's meeting room in the terminal. Jack will update us on what is planned for the year and take time to answer your questions.

2026 EAA Air Academy
Feb. 2026
Camp Scholarship Applicants Chapter 846 is offering two full scholarships for deserving area youth to attend the EAA Explore Aviation Camp, aka Air Academy Camp, in Oshkosh, WI, in July, 2026. The EAA Explore Aviation Camp is a fun-filled nine-day aviation camp experience for youth ages 16-18. Four applicants have applied for the two scholarships. You may click on each name below for their application, which includes their essay and two references.
Voting is available to all current Chapter 846 members, which means that the dues for 2026 need to have been paid. Please note that you should vote for two (2) applicants this year. Voting will be done electronically only. Paper ballots will not be used. Voting will begin at the February Gathering and will be opening until February 20th.
Feb., 2026
Registration will be at the beginning of May, so we will need to know who will be participating prior to then. The national chapters organization will mark off camping spots two weeks prior to AirVenture. They will mark off the sites in order of which chapter registered first. Once registered, we will not be able to accept anyone else, even if we are not at the maximum limit, as it will push us to the back of the line of the sites to be marked. Participants will have to pay for the full week of camping but will have access to the site for 16 days, up until the end of AirVenture. 2026 pricing will be set sometime in February. Last year’s pricing was $351 per site. Each site must be registered to a chapter member, whose national membership expires after the close of AirVenture.
If you would like to camp with other Chapter members, please contact Brian Burke either by phone or text at 216-406-5607. Sites will be filled on a first come first served basis.
Proposed By-Law Change
Feb, 2026
A proposed by-law change was suggested at the last Board Meeting, February 4, 2026. This proposal is to accommodate how voting will be accomplished when we have a “shared” co-officer position as we do now with the Secretary position (Steve Bauman & Mary Baker). The proposed wording suggested and agreed upon by the residing Officers and Board Members:
Each Chapter Officer and Board Member is entitled to one vote per motion. If a Chapter Officer position is shared between two members, only one vote can be cast by that position.
This wording will be brought up at a future Gathering so that the members can vote.
Happy Holidays!
Jan. 2026
The Chapter celebrated the holidays in typical fashion with a fun party at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Wadsworth 
| A good present A funny present Oh, and that present! |

2026 dues can now be paid online, in person, or by mail. For those members who paid your dues last year using the Zeffy website, you most likely have received a reminder email from Zeffy. Chapter dues are separate from the dues charged by EAA National. Chapter dues are
for each calendar year.
All members are welcome to pay online using Zeffy or PayPal. Zeffy does not charge any fees to the chapter, but it does automatically add a percentage to the payment. This percentage can be modified to zero if you like. PayPal charges a fee to the chapter for every transaction. This fee is $0.99 for a dues payment of $25. Checks and cash are of course always welcome.
Your prompt payment of the 2026 dues is greatly appreciated.
Many, Many Thanks!
Dec. 2025
Our board and officers elections are over, with all of our board members agreeing to continue for another two-year term, as did our VP, Abby Donofrio and Treasurer, Gary Baker.

Our many thanks to all who work with such dedication to keep our chapter growing and moving forward.
A HUGE THANK YOU for Steve Bauman and Mary Baker for their willingness to co-chair our secretary position. Steve will take on the note-taking job during our gatherings and Mary Baker is willing to take minutes of the board meetings.2026-2027 Officer Slate:

Nov., 2025
As mentioned in the October Wingnut, Rob passed away September 12, 2025. Rob had been a member of the chapter since 2015 and became a Van’s RV-14A builder.
Rob is survived by his sister and other relatives. Rob asked her if she would request assistance from Chapter 846 members in selling the kits and aviation tools that he had accumulated. It is believed that Rob has purchased all of the kits from Van’s Aircraft for the RV-14A. The empennage has been completed and the aft fuselage is partially assembled. The rest of the kits are still in crates, some of which have not been opened and inventoried.
Rob’s estate is in probate, so the aircraft kits are unable to be sold yet. However, Gary Baker would like to ask for a group of members to visit the project at Rob’s house in Cuyahoga Falls and begin to complete an inventory of all of the kits. This would assist Rob’s sister in selling everything when she is able to do so. None of the family live in Ohio, so a project visit will have to be coordinated with someone who will be in town.
Please let Gary, ggbaker24@gmail.com know of your willingness to attend an inventory party in the next few months. He will then contact you with potential dates of the visit.

Chapter 846 Swank Fly-Out
Randy Brooks, Oct., 2025
We had a great breakfast fly-out on Sunday, 26 Oct to Swank Farms, our favorite grass strip. Seven Chapter aircraft made the journey to Swank under beautiful, clear skies.
A total of 13 Chapter members made up the group: Jerry Wang (RV-4); Gary Baker and Kevin Fink (RV-6); Paul, Kristi, Mimi and Bridgette Lutz in the ‘Lutz Family Truckster’ (C-182); David Gerdeman (C-172); Paul and Susie Hanchek (Luscombe); Eric McWilliams (C-140); and Randy Brooks and Dave Manning (RANS S-21). This was Dave’s first flight in Randy’s S-21 that he helped build, now that Randy is able to fly the S-21 at full gross weight thanks to MOSAIC!
NOTE: Gary was Randy’s first ‘official’ right seat passenger as Gary gave Randy his flight review on Saturday! Thank God he passed, otherwise Dave wouldn’t have had breakfast on Sunday!
Be sure to monitor the Chapter Telegram chat site for upcoming fly-outs over the next few months, when the weather permits. There are usually empty seats available, so if you want a ride, just speak up on the Telegram!

Also a BIG thank you to the staff of the Wayne County Airport, Matt, Rachael, and Preston. Finally, this event would not have been as successful without the help of Mary Baker.

Many thanks to all our fabulous ground volunteers who kept the day running so smoothly, and to our five pilots: Gary Baker, Tim Conway, Bryon Palitto, Chris Shearer, and especially Ray Ebner.
