KEEPING THE SPORT ALIVE!
We have been writing quite routinely about all of the changes (transitions)
occurring in Light Sport Aviation in the Pacific Northwest. For the most part
these have all been planned for some time, but are not beginning to actually
happen. The entire leadership (Executive Board) of EAA UL Chapter 127 has
now officially changed. Paul Beam, a CFI and sport pilot out of the Arlington
Washington area is now the elected President of the chapter. We have new
owners/leaders in among our training affiliates with the biggest news being the
purchase of Seattle Powerchutes LLC by Mark Martin, as Rick Gutierrez
announced his intention to move on to other interests. Doug and Lynn Maas
continue to transition towards retirement and managing Six Chuter
International LLC. So while it is sad to see some of the “ole guard” move on, it is
also encouraging to see the new leaders step up and the sport continue to thrive.
Western Sport Pilot Association will continue to carry out our mission of
supporting and advocating for light sport aviation in the West.
Issue Highlights
 The EAA UL Chapter 127 leadership has changed. Read the newsletter in
this issue to learn who the new Board is and how to stay connected with the
club.
 The Flight Center reports highlight the activity around the west at our
most active training locations. And enjoy more news about the newest leaders in
the sport.
 Our training corner is an article on how to make the correct decisions on
equipment, training and other issues if you are just getting into the sport.
 Learn how to stay connected with the sport pilot community in the
Pacific Northwest.
“The concept of transition implies change. And change means that
you must give up something to get something else, or somewhere
else. This is what makes transition a difficult process.”
– Doug Maas, President

EAA ULTRALIGHT CHAPTER #127
EAA UL Chapter 127 was organized in about 2004 as a small powered parachute
club. The original members numbered 5 powered parachute pilots. The club has
grown to a regional EAA Chapter with over 100 members who fly all categories of
aircraft. Art Smith was the original President of the club and unfortunately we lost
Art to cancer a couple of years ago. With Doug Maas, Clyde Poser and Jim Groebner
stepping down from leadership and the new board elections of 2014 the transition is
complete.
Paul Beam, Lydia Stout, Steve Cooper and Denny Homer are to be congratulated for
volunteering to keep the club moving. They can’t do it on their own so we hope that
we can count on membership to support with volunteer efforts to lead flight rallies
and other activities.
EAA UL Chapter 127 is a Western U.S. regionally organized light sport aviation chapter of the EAA. We have members in
Oregon, Washington, California, Idaho, Montana and a variety of other locations. This chapter has grown to 125
members.

TRAINING CENTER NEWS
Seattle Powered Parachutes (Arlington, Washington)
Mark Martin (Left) , CFI Seattle
Powerchutes
Paul Beam (right) CFI Seattle Powerchutes
Rick Gutierrez, founder of Seattle Powered Parachutes has announced his
intention to move on to other interests. Rick has been a bit of a “Pied Piper” for
powered parachutes in the Puget Sound area for many years so it is sad for us to
see him leave the sport. He is coordinating with Mark Martin and Paul Beam to
transition his organization to these new guys. Mark Martin earned his CFI and is
also working on airplane and weight shift categories so will be a real work-horse
in the coming years. Mark is also an applicant for Light Sport Examiner and
plans to replace Doug Maas in this capacity. Paul Beam is our newest CFI having
earned that credential earlier this year. Paul was intantly kept busy as early as
the Memorial Day club fly in, and has been steadily training all summer. Seattle
Powered Parachutes based at the Arlington Airport, north of Seattle has
developed to become one of the most active light sport centers in the U.S. Rick
has classroom space, hangars full of aircraft including his SLSA certified Six
Chuter Paragon, and there are maintenance personnel on the Arlington field.
Seattle Powered Parachutes is also the
base for the accelerated courses and
also for the FAA designee Private Pilot
powered parachute course where FAA
inspectors earn their powered
parachute wings.
RULE Aviation (Buckley, Washington)
Clyde Poser is the owner of RULE aviation based out of Buckley Washington.
Clyde is the EAA Chapter 127 President, is an FAA Repairman, a CFI in weight
shift and powered parachutes, an FAA examiner in weight shift category and now
one of the few Private Pilot powered parachute examiners in the U.S. Clyde’s
main issue is that there is only one of him! He is doing as much as he possibly
can to help keep the students of weight shift flying moving, after the untimely
death of weight shift CFI Rob Lyons.
Clyde Poser (left) CFI/DPE
California Powered Parachutes (Tracy, California)
Stephen Brandon is the lone wolf in Central and Northern California, holding
some distinction as the only FAA certified flight instructor in that region. Steve
has reported his busiest year ever and there is an ever increasing number of
inquiries as his “flock” grows. Steve has a nice set up with classroom, hangars
available, and a light sport friendly airport at Tracy California municipal
airport. Steve’s strategy, like mine, is keeping his eyes open and efforts focused
on adding a couple of instructors to his team and stepping up to the examiner.
And there is some rumor of the possibility of another EAA light sport oriented
club in his area of operation. Steve is also a new applicant for light sport
examiner and that will greatly increase capacity for training in this area.

P-3 Sports (Lendhardt Airfield, Hubbard Oregon)
Perry Robertson would describe his operation right now as “keeping
as busy as I want to be”. Perry is fully rotax certified, an FAA
repairman and a CFI for powered parachutes. The maintenance side
of Perry’s operation keeps him constantly busy thus his time for
taking on new students has been limited. Because I am in the same
situation, for slightly different reasons, Perry and I plan to partner
with an SLSA trainer based at Lendhardt, and do our best to take on
new students carefully. We say carefully because our capacity given
our other duties will still limit availability for initial training.

Wolfe Edmonds
I'm happy to report that we are going strong down here in beautiful
Southern Oregon. Over the past year we have overhauled our Flight
lodge and our airplane. We now offer light sport training in our
beautifully restored 1946 415-C model Ercoupe "Delta Victor”. I'd
like to invite you to view our newly updated website
www.captaindrakesfaa.com or to stop in for a visit, tour, and
introductory flight in Delta Victor.
Wolfe Edmonds
Book a room at our flight lodge and make a weekend with the wife
out of it! Also please help us out by liking us on Facebook! I'd also
like to inform you all that Wolf Emonds is now a featured Author on
the Aviation Website “Tally One" check it out it is an exciting site!
Our future is looking bright and we hope to expand with
additional aircraft and more rooms at the lodge. Wolf will be
working towards earning his FAA designated pilot examiner
ticket so that we will be able to offer one stop shopping in-house
pilot certifications along with our already amazing fixed rate
pricing!
If you need a push to get going on your aviation goals this is the
time! Let's do this. Our program is proven successful. We have
graduated many student into the ranks of certified pilots. We still
have a 100% pass rate. We have completed sport pilot training
from zero time to finished check ride in less than three weeks! Don't forget that we offer that beautiful lodge so you may
relax in comfort when you are not actually in the airplane. Come Fly with us!

Robby Denning (Idaho Falls, Idaho)
Speaking of lone wolves! Robby is another “sole” legal FAA instructor for powered parachutes in a region that seems to be
“ripe” with pilots who aren’t necessarily up to following the sport pilot requirements. The impact on his training operation
has been a significant downturn from ultralight days. However, he is hanging in there and available for anyone in Idaho
who wants to fly legal, fly safe, fly right. Robby Denning WeScout4u Inc. www.rokslide.com/easyblog
Scratch Gravel Aviation, Bill Dotter (Helena, Montana)
While we are on the “lone wolf” trend, Bill Dotter, based out of
Helena Montana is another “all by himself” CFI in Montana
guy. He is FAA CFI and a Designated Flight Examiner. Bill has a
Six Chuter SLSA and is a routine visitor to the Pacific N.W. club
events where he is available to conduct training, flight reviews
and practical tests. And we continue to encourage potential
Montana students to do this right with legal equipment and a
legal, professional and general all around great guy.
Bill Dotter, CFI/DPE
Arizona Powered Parachutes, Randy Long
(Scottsdale Arizona)
Randy operates in one of the best areas in the U.S. for light sport
flying. Randy is a commercial hot air balloon pilot, as well as CFI in
powered parachutes. Here is feedback from one of his 2013
students:
Hi Randy and Doug,
Well, I just returned from Durango, Colorado. I completed and passed my oral exam (grueling)
and the check ride (straight forward) With Chuck Wales. Thanks Randy for the wonderful
education and thanks Doug for the great product support.
Now, time to fly often!!!
In a little time, who knows, maybe my CFI.
Best Regards, Brendon Baerg
Randy Long, CFI, Arizona Powered Parachutes
Bonneville Skybase Dennis Stanley (Salt Lake City, Utah)
Dennis Stanley holds down our S.E. corner (loosely interpreting “Pacific
Northwest”). Dennis announced retirement of his CFI Partner Lew
Ershler. Dennis is an authorized examiner and one of the few Private
Pilot Examiners authorized for powered parachutes in the United
States. Dennis and has been challenged with a lot of issues (real life
stuff) over the past couple of years, but is still our go to team in the Utah
region.

Flight reviews usually range from $150 to $400 and require a minimum of one hour of ground and one hour of flight
training. The flight review is designed to keep you safe, legal and proficient.

Helmets and Intercom. Some pilots fly without helmets but you will find that our pilot culture encourages helmets as basic
safety equipment. The helmets and intercom systems used for light sport are really quite specialized and available from
only a couple of reputable vendors.
