The last Saturday BBQ was an absolute success!! What did not work so well was planning a general membership meeting to follow.
The Board has decided that it will be better to return to Wednesday meetings, beginning next week… July 16th.
General Membership Meeting
Hangar E5 (Tony K’s, big hangars facing the runway)
7 pm.
We are still in need of two or three more pilots and many more helpers for our first Young Eagles event on Saturday, 19th July. If you’d like to help as part of the ground crew or fly, please contact our Young Eagles Coordinator, John Anderson. Please also plan to attend our Membership Meeting on 16 July, where we will discuss the details of the event. Let’s make this a fun event for our chapter’s first Young Eagles!
Tomorrow (July 2nd) is our monthly BOD meeting. The meeting starts at 18:30, or you can show up at 18:00 if you wish to join everyone for dinner. As always, the meeting is open to general membership.

Remember you’re invited to the Chapter meeting and pancake breakfast from 07:30 on Saturday, June 21st.
We’ll be at Bruce’s green hangar, #25, and feel free to bring your aircraft to the display – Frank’ll be there with the Cozy Jet!
9 members in 4 aircraft visited the pancake breakfast at Yolo (KDWA) with Chapter 52, and the pictures are here.
Step press: Tomorrow from 09:00 – 12:00, there’s a pancake breakfast at Yolo (KDWA) with Chapter 52. There are currently three Chapter 1541 aircraft attending, and we’d be happy to see more.
Several of us just concluded a fun weekend of flying and socializing at the Golden West flyin at Marysville Airport. Our chapter is getting some great recognition, and we want to continue to let the other chapters know how great we our and how great Lincoln Airport is. We are asking for support for the upcoming (June 21st) pancake breakfast. A flyer is going out to the surrounding chapters inviting their members to attend our pancake breakfast and see what we are all about. Bruce has already spoken to most of us, and wants to remind us that this is a chance to display our airplanes at the breakfast. The display area will be on the ramp next to the green hangars. The breakfast will be a short walk to hangar 27.
A couple of members of other chapters are thinking of doing some combined chapter fly ins/events, such as a poker run. This could be a lot of fun, but we need to keep the ball rolling with the support of the other chapters. Our pancake breakfast, displaying lots of our airplanes, will help show the other chapters that Chapter 1541 is for real.
Our Chapter walked, or should I say flew, away with first place ($300!) in the Chapter vs Chapter contest!
