EAA CHAPTER 219 The meeting was called to order at 7:00 P.M. by President Ron Linn. Attending: Lois & Bob Potter, Roy & Shirley Clark, Harold Nelson, Wilma and Dave Cheney, Jon Pugsley, Jeff Guenther, Fred Tenney, Dwayne Patton, Jim Smith, Steve Jonas, Cub Culbertson, Floyd Slinker, Dave Kelly, Ed and Dee Betts. Minutes of the November meeting were approved as printed in the newsletter. Treasurer's report was given. The chapter is in good shape. Dwayne Patton reported that he has moved to Yakima and has made contact with people at the McAllister Museum of Aviation who are also active in thre Yakima EAA Chapter. They are interested in receiving our newsletter and in chapter get-togethers- a good idea which will be explored as the weather gets better. Dwayne said that the Oxford Suites Hotel in Yakima will give the coporate rate for overnight stays by EAA 219 members. Ron and Bud reported problems with the newsletter in the transition to newsletter-by-email. They will keep trying for another 2-3 months and then re-evaluate. Tom Hutchison has done some work on the website. Tom has studied the Compass Rose project and now has a good idea of what will be required and what will be feasible for us to do. The project will continue in the spring. Ed reported that kids have broken several more windows on the southeast side of the building. He fixed 2 and 5 more remain to be fixed. Calendars were distributed to those who had ordered and paid for them. Dave reported that Walla Walla Flyers fly-out to breakfast is probably going to change format somewhat. Interest in joining them for this fun time was expressed. Dave will keep us informed as to what transpires. It was decided to move our building workday to the 4th Saturday in order to avoid conflict with their traditional 3rd Saturday. This means that the workday will not be held in February since the Northwest Aviation conference will be held then. The dates are February 24 and 25. Cub reported and showed an example of the former NOS (now NACO) instrument approach charts which are now available from the Internet at no cost to AOPA members. They are available in several sizes including knee board. Dave reported that a 5% rebate will be given on most everything purchased from many FBOs, including gas, when charged to an AOPA Master Card. It's easy, works, and there are apparently no gimmicks. The bank pays the rebate, apparently for card promotion. Jeff Guenther reported a list of videos available through the FSDO. The list will be posted on the bulletin board. Presiden Ron advised that he welcomes your e-mail however, do not send him any jokes. He does not have time to sift through them to get to the business stuff. Dave Cheney, Cub Culbertson, and Edd Betts say "ditto" for their e-mail. Next meeting will be February 20 with the Clarks as hosts. Wilma Cheney, Secretary |

Keith's Wild Ride
The blast of air distorted his features and made it impossible to breathe.
His pilot had to quickly slow the aircraft and circle to land on the
carrier. Jagged pieces of Plexiglas were in front of Keith's body but
fortunately his chute had deployed and was tangled in the tail. When
they landed and picked up the cable the chute harness kept his body
from being punctured by the Plexiglas |
