Notes from last months meeting, Saturday 2/11/06

Chapter 145 met in EAA hangar at Riverview airport. Hugh held a business meeting at 9:45 am. Items for the chapter meeting were discussed. The members couldn't help but notice the finished look of the EAA hangar; finished ceiling, walls, project under construction and heat! Many thanks to all who volunteered their time and money to this worthwhile project.

Bill Willyard gave a financial report (Chuck is in Texas). It was noted that the GP-4 project money had not been paid to the owner. Dick volunteered to take care of this.

Ron Fritz may purchase the Fly Baby project in the hangar, more to come on this.

Chapter 145 is scheduled to go to the Weeks Hangar, Oshkosh, on April 21-23. See enclosed information for details. So far 8 people have signed up.

Riverview Airport will sponsor an "aviation youth" open house on Saturday June 3. Thanks to the 14 members who signed up to help out.

More details later on this chance to showcase our airport to the local community and create interest in aviation.

Donations to the chapter of an exhaust fan and a bench belt sander were gratefully received. These items add to the number of power tools already in the hangar. Thanks

After the brief meeting chapter members were able to look over the progress being made on Mikes wings and Bobs fuselage. The excellent work being done is obvious.
