Enough of this cold weather!! On the assumption that the weather will be warmer, the March meeting will be breakfast as usual at the hangar. If temperatures are not cooperative, we will have heaters. Bring a new member prospect. Let's try to recruit one new member each this year and bring our membership level back up to past levels. We need new blood and new ideas.

Steve Dee will be our speaker. He will be doing a power point presentation on motor gliding. I have heard Steve's presentation's on various subjects at FAA safety meetings. He is an outstanding presenter with an interesting subject.

We are planning what I hope will become the first annual Chapter 182 Areo Market for the April meeting. I would like some idea of what our local membership would bring to such an event. If you have aviation related items that you no longer  have a use for, please bring a list to the meeting. We will accept anything aviation related from airplanes to cotter keys. Items may be donated to Chapter182 or put on consignment with a portion of the sales price donated to the Chapter. I have contacted the  chapter that runs the AeroMart at the convention for information on how to structure the event. We will advertise on the national EAA web site and inform surrounding chapters. There is no other event like this in our area. Hopefully, we can attract buyers and sellers outside our chapter and make this a banner event that will be an annual fund raiser for us.

See you at the hangar.

Fly Safe !
