Share photos, stories, what’s new with all of us. Safe flying and have fun. We’ve had an especially busy month with Young Eagle Rallies on June 13 and July 14th. In addition, many of our pilots, supported the Aviation Education Foundation with Young Eagle flights during their Summer Academy, June 17 - 26. We saw the usual excitement for the project tour. I can’t thank folks enough for letting us snoop around their projects and hangars. This also gave some a chance to visit with and ask questions of the Technical Counselors, Loyd Remus and Burrall Sanders. The notice of Phantom Fuel’s opening as a Phillip 66 distributor, reminded me that some of our YE pilots may not be aware of the Phillip 66 $1 gallon fuel rebate program for YE flights. Look for the program information and the YE Rebate Submission Form included in this issue. This month’s program feature Jay Brinkmeyer and the building of his RB10. He’s making great progress. Arrive at 6:30 PM to check-in and visit with friends. We’ll start the program at 7:00 PM. The EAA has started a new trial membership so this would be a great time to bring a friend and get them signed up. I didn’t notice many of our members at the ATC meeting in June and understanding how bad schedules can be….let me know if you’d like us to invite Alan Gorski (ATC) and Hank to repeat at one of our meetings. We’re planning a “Made To Order Breakfast” on Saturday, July 25th. So, bring your family and friends out. We’ll be serving 8:00 - 11:00AM. Weather permitting we’ll be able to serve downstairs and enjoy watching planes fly while we eat. Don’t forget, I’m still looking for Membership and Program Directors. See you Tuesday.
