From the June 2010 Meeting
Elections were held and the new board (which is the old board graciously joined by member-at-large Rosemary Petrusso) was unanimously approved.
In July, we will try a joint meeting the the St. Louis chapter. We will meet at Air Associates at Spirit of St. Louis airport. The food will be catered by the Pilot Shop.
There will be an airshow July 3 & 4 at St. Louis Downtown airport. Both the EAA and the Greater St. Louis Air & Space Museum will have food. There will be lots of airplanes on static display along with thrills and chills in the air. This is the first time that Fair St. Louis has had an airshow since 2005. There are more details in the St. Louis Business Journal.
EAA chapter 32 (at Smartt field) has movie night on the last Saturday of each month and visitors are welcome. Festivities start with a pot-luck dinner at 6:30pm (and BBQ meat if you bring a small donation). Movies are projected on a BIG screen and start at about 8:30pm in the summer. The movies on Saturday night, July 26 are Memphis Belle and Memphis Belle, first the documentary from 1944 and then the movie from 1998. More details are available on EAA 32′s web site.
