How many of you woke up this morning thinking “Which would I rather do today? Fly into a mountain at full throttle, fly into a thunderstorm, or just run out of gas over a dense forest?” Those of you who answered “None of the above, please” may be interested in the next WNCPA meeting on Tuesday, November 17th. The topic will be “The Aviation Trifecta: Fuel, Weather, and CFIT.” We will learn how to keep our hearts pumping as usual by avoiding the most common causes of aviation accidents.
As per usual, the festivities will begin at 6:15 with dinner from Arby’s ($5.00 donation suggested) in the Lacy Griffin aviation center, with the presentation to follow. If no parking space is available in front of the building, we have free use of Lot B just north of our meeting place, in the viewing area down the road, or in the small lot catty-cornered to the Lacy Griffin center.
Coming attractions: Mark your calendars for the annual holiday dinner at Bay breeze on December 8th at 5:00 p.m. Our speaker will be retired Rear Admiral Joey Tynch who mentors high school students through the construction of a homebuilt aircraft!
