2008 Chapter Meeting Information (Under Construction)


Please call or email Darren Pleasance with questions. See you there!!

 

Date and Time Location Subject
Jan 13, 4:00 - 6:00 PM Attitude Aviation - LVK Howard Kirker will talk us through flying the Intermediate Known. Even if you're not planning to fly Intermediate at all this year, you'll learn a lot about energy management, and how to fly individual figures.
     
Feb 10, 4:00-6:00 pm Attitude Aviation - LVK Ben “Freestyle” Freelove from Tutima Academy has graciously offered to come give a presentation on “How to create a Freestyle”. As you know, many of the categories require you to fly a Freestyle for one of your flights. Chapter 38 has created one in the past, but with rule changes, it’s probably time to make one of your own, or at least know what goes into making one. Ben will also be talking about “The Collaborators” (Sean, Eric, Ben, Bill), their busy show schedule this year, and how they’re preparing for it!

Formation Aerobatics:
Howard and Mike Eggen recently went through some formation training at Tutima, so I’m sure they’re want to share a little about their experience, and how that ties into “The Collaborators” training.
