Chapter Chatter

As the smoke is filling the skies and temperatures are above 85 while I write this letter, I am grateful for all of you.

We have a very diverse community of flying companions from the newest pilots to those of you who are Master Pilots with decades of experience.

The “GLUE” that binds us is aviation in its varied and wondrous forms. The strength of this ‘glue” transcends all the political noise around us. Plus it is your desire to help each other in times of difficulty, whether in life or on a project. You all are always available when you know there is a need. For that, I am so grateful.

The FLY-OUT program (Barry Halsted) is very active, It is fun and the fellowship is revealed by the number of members going. Good times await as we soon fly off into the blue yonder to Concrete.

The PAVER PROGRAM (Ray Ballantyne) is wrapping up the big push but bricks can still be purchased from Ray. The new design is going to be wonderful.

Still happening this month is a Young Eagles (21st) rally and Air Affaire (28th). Air Affaire needs volunteers for SETUP / TEARDOWN and working the booth. We can do this team.

Before heading out, be sure to check on the local health requirements as they keep changing daily. Keep a mask handy, wash your hands and social distance.

In the meantime, smile, be thankful, and remember we are pilots and we can get up and go.

See you at the airport.
