Escape to the Bahamas in a Day!We had a great Bahamas party to advertise this trip to the Caribbean but no takers! We went anyway with one (great) plane. Brent logged an hour and a half of actual instrument flying in addition to working with 23 different control facilities on the way to Florida! (Start planning for next February!) If you bring your family, you should really stay longer than one day to pay them back for the trip. We turned right around and came home (silly pilots). You can see some pictures here. Chris Camadella has made this trip and will talk about long cross-countries at the club on the 25th; FAA Wings Event |

| Wednesday; snow, 300' overcast | All the way to the Bahamas in a day! |

Chris owns a beautiful C-210 and is fond of saying "I did not buy a plane just to polish and sit it in the hangar!" Chris likes to fly trips and will share tips and techniques developed from taking longer voyages at this informative presentation. Chris designed the original Business After Hours posters about flying to Cedar Point Amusement Park and to sporting events with his family. He also flies often for business; don't miss this informative discussion. Please register for this event on the FAA Website. FAA WIngs credit available here.

Local pilot and club member Mike Brown is passionate about the Civil War and sharing his enthusiasm for this subject. Join us for a fun discussion at the club on Civil War life (with his props including a real flintlock rifle) and the battle of Gettysburg then fly to the actual site on May 8th. Sign up to join our caravan to the battle field and enjoy a guided tour of this park. We are planning lunch at a nearby restaurant then journey home. Planes are already reserved and owner-members are encouraged to join this trip. There is plenty of room for student pilots. Learn history the way it could not be taught in school! The trip is a leisurely 164 miles. |
