This coming Saturday, September 23, EAA Chapter 1541 will be having its 4th Saturday BBQ Lunch and Program at the EAA Hangar.
This month, our program will celebrate the successes of our youth scholarship and sponsorship programs for this year. Specifically, our 2022-2023 Ray Scholar, Anthony Moreno, has completed his private pilot training. Our current Ray Scholar, Danielle Hanes, is well into her training for her private pilot certification. We also sponsored two of our chapter’s young people, Sam Mach and Prahlad Iyengar, to attend the EAA Air Academy summer camp this past summer. We have asked all four to come and present their experiences through these programs.
So, for both our young presenters and our Oshkosh travelers…we will have our chapter computer hooked up to our screen and audio system…bring your thumb drive to project a Powerpoint or images, or bring your own HDMI-connection-capable computer and plug it on in. We’ll ask the presenters to come to the front and use a microphone so all can hear.
We’ll have a brief business meeting at 11:45 with the presentations and programs to begin at 12:00.
BBQ Lunch starts at 11:00 at our hangar at the Lincoln Regional Airport. If you are not familiar with our hangar’s location, come to the airport and just follow the “EAA” signs.
The grill is hot from 11:00 a.m. until 11:45 a.m. when it shuts down, so come early. BBQ Lunch is $10.00 for adults, $5.00 for kids 12 or under, and $25 for families.
And, for your convenience, we are now accepting credit and debit cards, plus other methods of electronic payment, for our meals, t-shirts, dues, and donations.
Please join us on Saturday.
Our September 2023 IMC/VMC club meeting will be held online via Zoom from 7-8 pm PDT on Thursday, September 7, 2023.
This interactive educational event will feature two “What Would You Do?” video scenarios. The IMC scenario will involve an IFR approach where ATC issues a revised landing clearance that you are not sure whether to accept, even though it would be simpler to do so than doing a missed approach. The VMC scenario involves a long solo cross country flight where you begin to feel ill enroute.
This coming Saturday is the City of Lincoln’s Airport Open House and Family Festival from 7 am to 2 pm. Come on out to the airport for a full day of activity. EAA Chapter 1541 will be participating with a Pancake Breakfast from 7 am until 10 am. We’ll also have our flight simulators our for folks to enjoy a short flight, and we’ll have an informational booth to answer any questions. Also on the airport: many dozens of display aircraft including military and CalFire, plus hot air balloons, classic cars, vendor booths, food trucks, and youth activities. It will be a great day to see our local airport and have some family fun.
We will be having our Second Saturday Pancake Breakfast from 8:00 to 10:00 a.m. in the EAA hangar, S-12 at the Lincoln Regional Airport. If you are not familiar with the airport, navigate to Flight Line Drive and follow the “EAA” signs. All are welcome.
Something new: our chapter is now accepting payment via credit or debit cards, and also Venmo and PayPal. We will be trying out our new systems in preparation for the August 26 Airport Open House.
Our chapter Board of Directors will be having its monthly meeting directly after the pancake breakfast, so you are welcome to stick around for that also.
good food and hangar flying too.
In addition to our group discussion, there will be a brief tutorial presentation on the factors that caused the unexpected challenges that the pilot experienced. We look forward to a lively interchange and all are invited to participate. To join the Zoom meeting, click here at 7 pm on Thursday 8/3.
The program will be rescheduled for our October BBQ Lunch meeting on October 21.
For anyone involved with the Young Eagle Rally planned for this Saturday from 8 am to 10 am, that also will need to be cancelled.
For our Saturday, July 22, BBQ Lunch meeting, Scott Thompson will present on a widely-known but less-understood topic: Scrapping Our World War II Air Force.
Almost everyone has seen pictures of the endless rows of surplus warplanes gathered at remote desert fields after the end of World War II. Why were these bombers and fighters seemingly abandoned? What happened to them? Did we just scrap them and turn them into pots and pans? This presentation provides the details of what we did with a massive air force no longer needed.
The grill is hot from 11:00 a.m. until 11:45 a.m. when it shuts down, so come early. BBQ Lunch is $10.00 for adults, $5.00 for kids 12 or under, and $25 for families.
And, for your convenience, we are now accepting credit and debit cards, plus other methods of electronic payment, for our meals, t-shirts, dues, and donations. Please join us on Saturday.
