Present: See sign-in sheet
Meeting called to order at 7 pm.
Marlin:

    pictures.
  • Swap meet this Saturday
  • Christmas dinner – 1
    st Wednesday in December, board suggested same place, same time
    as last year (Golden Corral). Fred suggested the board look into hosting the event at
    Royal Buffet. Board members will research this option, check for room availability, rates,
    senior discount.
    J.R. Sitman:
  • Gift cards – $400 in gift cards to be given away at Christmas dinner.
    Marlin – Safety at Flying Field
  • Recent incidents at the field are concerning, safety review is needed.
  • Please don’t power up airplanes in the pits – take your plane out to the bollards, power
    up, and fly. When you are done, unplug your plane at the bollards, and then return to
    the pits.
  • Discussion ensued regarding first aid kit to be kept on site to assist with propeller cuts.
    Steve Harrington wants to donate a medic “jump kit”, thinks it should be stored in metal
    box. J.R. said he has a contact who can weld up such a box. Charlie remarked that if
    anyone gets a serious prop cut, that’s a medical emergency and they should go to the
    emergency room.
  • Safety issues in the pattern: some pilots are flying all over the place. Please ask about
    pattern direction before taking off.
  • Use the middle of the runway to take off, instead of starting a takeoff roll at the pilot
    box.
  • Be aware of the pits – an EDF jet crashed into the pits at full throttle after the pilot lost
    control. Pay attention – if you lose control, speak up: “I don’t have it!”
