RECORDED MEETING MINUTES FOR JANUARY, 2007

A successful EAA meeting was held in Pocatello on January 20th with a good turnout in spite of horrible weather & driving conditions. Those who attended can claim braggin' rights for commitment & devotion. I did not make it so I am basing this report on Natalie's notes. Andy Andrews was only a little late & gave an excellent presentation on avionics. Looks like it will be mandatory for us all to bear the cost & reap the benefits of a new traffic reporting & collision avoidance system in a few years. Natalie conducted the business meeting & the officers reported. Old issues of flying magazines are available for 25 cents. 'The old officers were recognized & new ones introduced. Natalie won the "bring-a-buck" contest. Calendars and patches are still for sale so get them while it is still 2007!!! The chapter has obtained orange traffic vests for the Young Eagle ground crews. Meeting ideas are being considered so get your suggestions to Natalie, or reply to the questionnaire. Bill Smith won a set of precision screwdrivers in the attendance drawing. Dr. Richard Sugden invited our chapter to Driggs to a fly-in breakfast & a tour of the museum/side bldgs -something to look forward to this summer. Terry Bergevin gave a hands-on demo using safety wire for hose clamping. Bill Smith provided the refreshments.
