Whether you fly, build, restore or simply enjoy airplanes and aviation, you are welcome to attend our events and 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.

Notes: All events subject to any restrictions that may be in place at the time. The courtesy of distancing as much as possible, a facemask, and hand sanitizing is appropriate with the conditions. As with any other activity, a personal "Risk Assessment" should guide you. If you don’t feel well, have been exposed to or think you may have COVID-19, please stay home and join us another time.
While we are all confined to home, youth may be interested in the "Weather Minds" classes on YouTube, which include brief videos of Airplane Flight Data, Blizzards, Thunder, Rainbows, etc., and each ends with a book about the subject read by one of the KARE 11 meteorologists. Adults, too, can learn from the lessons!
