From the Editor
This Edition will a "short" version. There
will be NO club meeting this month because we were
notified by the Church administrator that our meeting
hall will not be available on November 9th.
I was also advised by President Walt Pierzchala that
there will not be a meeting of the Board of Governors
in November.
Daylight Saving Time will end on October 31 and the
evenings will be gone for flying. Morning and afternoon
flying will probably continue for some members, but
when the temperature hits the 40's it's time for me
to pack it in. Then it's back into the celler to put
together another model for next year's season.
See you at the auction!!
BOG Review
Meeting October 19, 1999
15 members present, 6 new BOG members also attended.
Meeting called to order at 7:10 PM by President Walt
Pierzchala:
1) Much discussion about our overworked and undermanned flight training program. The BOG presented questions and Jim Campana fielded the answers. The results clearly show more input is needed to handle safety, training, and procedures. Direct any comments to Jim or a BOG member. As a club we will be working on this now, for next year.
2) Miles Bowman has requested to be a Field Marshall. This has been directed to the Chief Field Marshall, Ed Moore.
3) The on-field storage facility request is still pending.
4) There will not be a club meeting for November.
5) Club Auction November 6th, extra hands will be needed to help out. See Ed Snead.
6) Frequency pins should be in one of two places: on the board or on your transmitter. The alloted time per use is 15 minutes. A smart flyer walks the flight line to determine multiple frequency use, and confirms this with another pilot.
7) Next years (2000) Club Officers are:
President - Walt Pierzchala
Vice President - Paul Davis
Secretary - Dee Messina
Treasurer - Al Primas
Respectfully submitted,
Dee Messina, Secretary
