June meeting delayed one week
To avoid Father's Day, the June meeting is pushed back one week to June 25
We got to show off the RV-12 two times recently. Once at an EAA Chapter 166 meeting and another at Bridgeport airport to kick off their RV-12 project. We get to do it again at Meriden airport on August 14th. It feels really good to talk about what we have accomplished. Through our chapter’s efforts...
It was nice to see everyone at the meeting June 28th. Attendance was very good. Maybe we should always move our June meeting back one week to miss Father’s Day.

We will see how things look at the end of April before deciding on the May meeting. As part of EAA’s national May 16...
A great milestone was passed on Feb 29th, airplanes were moved into the new T hangars! This is a great accomplishment not only by Wilma and her team but by everyone in the Chapter who makes the airport valuable to the community, an educational experience place for kids, and simply a fun place to be....
The days are getting longer but it is still cold. If you are not flying much I hope you are getting your plane ready and/or planning trips for later this year. The hangar project is moving along. Be aware planes in hangars and on the ramp will be moving all over the place to accommodate construction...
