Throughout its life, the club has had two presidents, Bill Hawkins, and since 1972, Gerald Ballard. Anne Hawkins was the club’s first secretary, and kept the schedule. Wendy Griffin now handles that all-important task.
Between 30 and 60 aircraft are likely to show up for a typical breakfast club meeting, but Truett, who flies from Columbia’s Jim Hamilton L.B. Owens Airport thinks the record may have been set at a meeting in Newberry County, northwest of Columbia, when 120 aircraft landed in less than an hour and a half, he said.

who has traveled the longest distance to reach a meeting destination. A
visitor from the United Kingdom came away with that award at one

Cherokee Six received the prize.
Tradition long dictated that any pilot who received the ball must
relinquish it at the following meeting. But when too many balls went
unrecovered, a change of policy was decided.

Even with having to buy all new ADS-B equipment I will have more money in my pocket by upgrading now than had I procrastinated and waited until 2020. I know, that sounds crazy, right? But it’s true. Here’s what I did and how I realized that savings. Read the Full Article here: http://www.thehdpilot.com/blog-article.aspx?id=53 |
