Our next meeting will be a Young Eagles program. The meeting will be from 7:30 AM to 11:30 AM on September 25^th in Del’s Hangar No. 3, and will include a pancake breakfast. The target youth are from the local Big Brothers/Big Sisters activity. Ten to twenty Young Eagles are expected. President Jim is lining up the team. Those who fly need to arrange for an Insurance Certificate to be forwarded to Jim, must be members of the EAA, and must have a current flight physical and a current biannual review. All aircraft must be current also. This will be a recognized EAA activity and the Young Eagles who fly will be given a certificate and will be listed in the "World’s largest Logbook." More than one million Young Eagles flew last year.

Thirty-one attended our meeting on August 18^th. Lynn Millar and Janine Althany of the local Big Brothers/Big Sisters organization described their organization and their work. Their activities are an important part of the overall community effort to provide a proper environment for the local youth. They serve about 70-80 local youth and expect that about ¼ will probably be interested in our program on the 25^th.

Lynn and Janine shared some of their experiences with the local Big Brothers/Big Sisters activity.

Note that Peggy Thornton was set up to serve "low calorie" brownies and ice cream.

And Pete Ludke gave an impromptu demonstration of proper tire mounting.

3. No careful, well-trained competent pilot will ever be caught in a position from which a reasonably safe emergency landing cannot be made.
4. The careful and competent pilot will know his personal limitations and ability and will not take a chance in getting into a position where the demands of safety might exceed them.
