Club Meetings
Wednesday July 12, 2000
Today's
meeting started around 6:45. Several people flew in for this
meeting. Here is Dick Beamer and his Coyote: 
and another picture: 
Here is another member flying in: 
and then Mike King 
flies in. Ok, so he is walking here, but that is his T-Bird behind
him! Dick was low on fuel so Jim Cooper goes to his hangar and retrieves
his homebuilt fuel pump on a cart. Here he is showing how it works: 
Stu Reynolds offers to assist in the fuel delivery: 
"This thingy here pumps the fuel through this hose type gadget and the gas
gets into the whatchamacallit somehow..."
The meeting comes to order: 
President Gary Tackett reviews his notes (or is he eating supper?) as Jerry Hodges records the meeting.
Everyone listens intently... 
It was decided that it was too hot to hold the meeting inside so we adjourned to
the beautiful outdoors: 
This is Brent Herman, Jerry Kitt, Mike King, Mike Ward, Steve Duncan, Jim Cooper
(barely visible behind Steve), then Stu Reynolds. 
Here you see Mike Hopper, Jerry Hodges, Max Nelson, and then Tim Searle (front
to back).
Today's meeting focused on
planning a flight using charts and other piloting resources that are
available. Dick Beamer was the presenter, sharing his tips and experience
in planning a flight to Marshall, Michigan for the KIMO fly-in Sept 1st. 
When Dick was finished, Mike Ward coordinated the responsibilities for the club's fly-in scheduled for Saturday August 12. He handed out slips of paper with duty assignments to the responsible parties. And NO, he does NOT accept bribes! Don't ask how I know! Since we are having the fly-in next month we will not have a meeting, but will get together again in September. Hope to see you at the fly-in!
Fly Safe.
