Thanks!

See you then!

Reminder: Third Thursday Chapter meeting
Fellow aviators,
?
Just a couple of reminders, etc.:
?
Our monthly meeting will be this Thursday 11/21 at 1900 at the FBO.
?
David Sorrells, our chapter treasurer, is informing member that our annual chapter dues of $25 is due by the end of the year and he is accepting payments.? Last year he did issue a link for online dues payments however he can accept cash and checks at the meeting.
?
We still need someone to assume the position of chapter president.? Please!?
?
We're asking our members to step forward to share how/why they got involved in aviation.? It doesn't have to be a formal speech with media, etc. but rather just relate how you got started.?
?
Tonight I expect to do a presentation with a video that I captured in November 2001 that documents a "Redcap" mission for the Civil Air Patrol two months after the 9/11 terror attack.? Redcap is a search for a missing aircraft with this one being out of Graham, Texas.? We were searching for a missing Piper Cheyenne that did not arrive at Graham as expected and nobody realized it was missing until the next morning when the occupants did not show for work.? The conditions were miserable when the aircraft was enroute and at the Graham airport with mist, rain, dense clouds and fog.? At the time I was at the Mesquite CAP squadron and three of us went to join the mission at the Graham airport.? The video shows the trip from departure to scenes/activities at the search base; helicopter traffic arriving, etc.? When the crash site was discovered I hitched a ride on the DPS helicopter to the site, where I did shoot quite a bit of video before returning to the search base on the helicopter.? The video is about 18 minutes long, and I'm in the process of uploading it to my computer so that I can show it on the minotor.? It's not a professional video but rather one that I filmed and edited when I returned from the mission.? I think you may find it interesting, especially if you've not seen what at airplane looks like after the CFIT, or Controlled Flight Into Terrain.? I have attached the NTSB findings.
Please plan to attend....

Minutes attached for October 17th Chapter Meeting
Fellow aviators,
?
Here are the minutes for our October 17th meeting.
?
We had a total of five attendees.
?
David Sorrells? has asked that members be reminded that our $25 annual chapter dues will be due December 31st and he will be able to collect now.
?
If you would be willing, we're still looking for members who would share their story about how they got involved in aviation, specifically being a pilot, and their history since.? Your story does not have to be illustrated or presented in a splashy video, etc., but rather just speak your story.? Any sort of photos, videos, etc. would be welcomed, of course, but not required.
?
We're still needing someone to serve as the chapter president.? If we don't have someone step forward, we may elect someone in absentia.
?
Our next chapter meeting will be November 21st, the Third Thursday at 1900 at the FBO as usual.? Please try to attend so we have a good turnout.
?
Kind regards,
?

We have our monthly 'Third Thursday' chapter meeting at 1900 at the FBO this week, October 17th and we have two challenges..
?
No one has stepped forward to take on the office of Chapter 1656 President, so this is still a concern.? If you can take a year to be the one, consider it as being a fairly easy tasking with twelve meetings and a couple of other functions, i.e. a Young Eagles event (We have a coordinator!) and perhaps a couple of other events that need a bit of attention.? As president, you'd not be alone but rather will have other members that will help out with any taskings, events, etc. so it's definitely NOT a one-man-band situation.? Please consider it.
?
Part 2:? I'm looking for someone this Thursday evening to give a little talk about how they got into aviation, especially to become a pilot.? What caught your interest?? When?? Why?? What was your path to get into the left seat (with the exception of our helicopter pilots)?? Do you have any photos to display or pass around?? Videos?? What were? your challenges that stood between you and the yoke?? What milestones or moments really got your attention, good or not so good?? Did you fly professionally for pay? (Let's hope we all fly professionally!)? I will volunteer for our next meeting if necessary but we need someone for our Thursday meeting....
Part 3:? I have an event immediately prior to our meeting, so I may be a few minutes late; I will call someone to advise of my arrival at the meeting, but the latest I anticipate being there would be 7:15.
?
Our last meeting's attendance was stellar!? We had a great turnout for Carl Robinson's talk and video about his experiences at the Reno Air Races.? Thanks, Carl!
?
See you soon!
