From The President - By Steve

Greetings Members,

A short message this month. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and was able to celebrate with their family. Sorry for the late message but I finally found a little time to think about what went on around the club the last month.

I would like to thank Larry Wehrman for his quick work purchasing the electric tug for the Cessna. I used it last week and it is so much better than using the winch or pushing the plane in. A real time and energy saver and a great addition for the club.

The RV and the Cessna continue to get a lot of use although less than half the members are checked out in the RV. Pick a nice day and get with one of our check pilots for a little different flying experience.

Safe flying,

Steve
