Next Chapter Meeting - 5/20/2012 - Gaston Airport

     Our next chapter meeting is scheduled for Sunday, May 20th, 2012 from approximately 1:00pm until 4:00pm at Gaston Airport (2SC8). Joe Garner and Tom Brandon will provide the meal beginning around 1:00pm. The business meeting will begin around 2:00pm immediately after lunch.  Neil Deye has arranged for Jeff Miller to make a presentation beginning about 3:00pm. Jeff is the current owner of the airstrip which we formerly referred to as "Elton's Airstrip" near Gilbert Airpark and PBA. Here's what Jeff has to say about himself:

"I grew up in Florida with my grandfather on his airstrip in an area like this with little airstrips everywhere, and we flew practically every day. Now it seems hard to find the time to go fly. I have been around airplanes and hotrods all my life, and I had some very good teachers along the way (my Grandfather and Curtis Pitts). I was fortunate enough to get my start flying young and have logged almost 4000 hrs and along the way I was able to get my private single & multi engine land, single engine seaplane, helicopter, and North AmericanT-28 type ratings as well, as my A&P and IA, so I have been very lucky."

Check back here approximately 1 week prior to the meeting for further details.
