May 2013 Meeting Minutes

May 18, 2013

We held our May Meeting at Creve Coeur, Dave Doherty presiding. Most of us drove in, though Dave McGougan flew the Ridge Dodger over. Meeting began after visiting Aeroworks to see progress on the new interior of Dave's Taylorcraft.

Bud attended Sun 'N Fun, around 5000 planes.

Don gave the Treasurer's report, including checking and savings account balances.

Next Young Eagles event is on June 15, our last event was cancelled due to flooding.

We voted on a new DVD player, possibly Blu-Ray, and some speakers. Dave McGougan made the motion which was seconded. After brief discussion we voted and passed.

Don has a list of volunteers to work on the Sonerai, but will finish up the compressor first.

Don and Dave will put up the new mailbox today.

Paul Vorhees of chapter 64 is a Fly Baby enthusiast, Dave would like to get him over to the ARC to take a look at ours.

EAA32 signage needs work: the letters and numbers facing the taxiway are getting old and we need a similar sign for the west wall.

The B-17 is coming. Since it will start out at CPS we plan to coordinate with the EAA chapter over there and split the profits.

We'll have an information booth at the downtown airshow July 4, 5, and 6.

Our next movie, next weekend, is Apollo 13.

Our next meeting was going to be a fly-in but we've put that off until August.

The river has receded and threat appears to have passed.

July's meeting will be short, mainly Oshkosh planning.
