April 16, 2016



On a beautiful Saturday Morning at 10:00 am, Dick Murray, Mike Schnell, Matt Bailey, Bob Sachs, Ken Boyd, Neil Winget and Ann Vogel met at AXV for their meeting. Later, Gary Lutz and Sean Schmehl joined us.


President Ken opened the meeting with Old business. Mike announced that our chapter is registered with the National EAA. We had to cover the cost of liability insurance of about $200.

The Young Eagles program was discussed. It was decided by consensus that we would fly the Space Camp attendees. Mike will coordinate the event. It will probably take place on two separate days.

At a previous meeting a cookout was suggested for a future meeting. At the next meeting, Thursday, June 9, 7:00 pm there will be a cookout. The menu will be brats (brought by Dick); beans (brought by Mike); chips (brought by Neil) and drinks (BYOB). Reservations must be made and Ann will relay the number of people attending.

New Business:
Dick announced that he registered Neil Armstrong Airport Aviators as a Club with the the AOPA with hopes of winning a 150.

It was suggested that members present a topic of discussion at the meeting. Many ideas were presented. The group was also interested in participating in a Fly-Out. 

Suggestions were given: Muncie, Coldwater or Kalamazoo. Additional plans will be made at the next meeting.

Neil shared with the group some of his experiences at Sun ‘n Fun.

Other non-aviation topics were also discussed.

Mike and Neil moved that the meeting be adjourned.
