Club Meeting - 29Sep2016

The quarterly Club Meeting was held in the Majors Flying Club hangar on the evening of Thursday, September 29, 2016. The event was attended by around twenty members of the club who were anxious to have a taste of Chief Rector's burgers and brats and to hear Harry Andonian speak.

The meeting was called to order around 5:30 p.m. to the smell of grilled burgers and brats by club president Dennis Mathis. As you can see from the agenda and from the pictures both Tom Hubert and Ned Howard were recognized for their solo flights. Don Reeder is shown presenting a solo certificate to Tom Hubert and Dennis Mathis is shown presenting Ned Howard with his certificate. Way to go gentlemen!

Club Safety Officer and Chief Pilot Mark Armstrong spoke to the group and reminded them of some basic issues to always be aware of. Mark plans to make short safety briefings a regular part of the quarterly club meetings. It never hurts to hear those important safety tip periodically.

Our local hero and friend, Harry Andonian, was introduced and as you can see from the pictures, regaled us with more interesting stories about his storied career as a military pilot. It is always entertaining and informative when Harry is giving a presentation. Thank you Harry. Dennis Mathis presented Harry with yet another MFC coffee cup as a thank you for being our guest speaker.
