Correction
The next meeting will be March 9th at the Sparta Airport Lounge @ 7:00 PM.
This is a correction to the previous news letter where I had mistakenly put
down that there was not going to be a March meeting.

Sun-n-Fun
SUN –N –FUN is just a couple weeks away, I know I have plans for going
down with my wife. My daughter is flying in from LasVegas so we make it a
family vacation. With any kind of luck the weather will be better this year. I
always like seeing the people there. Frank Nash that flew the C-46 that I published
in one of last years newsletter will be there. You can find us in the campground
camped on the berm across from the corn roast. Stop by and we can
have a beverage and do some hanger flying.

If you still have a paper pilot license you can log on to FAA.gov, go to licenses and certificates to fill out the form for the plastic license. You have to have this done by February.
Vic Johnston gave an update on mogas problem at Sparta and other airports. At this time what is in the tank now is all we will get.
Our January 12 meeting will be a combination meeting and venison supper get-together, bring a salad or dessert. We will meet at 7 pm in John Gill's hanger.
The program for December was Ron Fritz. He brought several rubber and gas powered vintage free flight models. Some of the rules for flying these models were explained, such as maximum engine run for gas models and minimum flight time for max points. Also discussed were the ways to limit engine run time, and how the airplane was brought down after a max flight.

Christmas has come and gone and the New Year is here. I hope each was and will be enjoyable for you and your family.
I had a meeting with Tom Mills, the District Director of the Boy Scouts of America. It was a very informative and educational meeting. We talked about the chapters responsibilities as sponsor and what the troop could do for us. I will be speaking more on this in coming months.
As always we could use ideas for programs, see Dave Duperron.
See you at the next meeting.
