The new folks (I didn\u2019t write down their names-darn!) were very nice to them and agreed to keep the situation as it was before. Thanks guys!! Saved us a bunch of money and trouble and made some very nice friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There being no new business, President Pat adjourned the meeting to regroup outside and have an interesting show and tell from Mat Northway on his new (to him) 1929 Brunner Winkle Bird biplane. Mat told the story of how he found it at WAAM as a bit of a project plane, made an offer to buy it subject to them fixing it and finding an instructor to help him transition into it, then learning to fly it as he has. Thanks Mat! for all the interesting details and a great presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President Pat then asked the group for ideas that we can\npresent to the membership about a project that the club can start. He knows\nthat it needs to be a great idea, have a sparkplug member to spearhead it and\nlots of participation. Please contact him if you can think of something that\nwill really appeal to a lot of aviation minded folks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next meeting will be at the clubhouse on October 7th. It will be just a meeting at 7:00. Masks are mandatory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There being no other new or old business, Past President\nJohn Kuehl then showed 3 EAA hints for homebuilders videos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The meeting was then adjourned at 8:28PM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Respectfully submitted,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Randall Stout, Secretary\/ Treasurer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EAA Chapter 31 Meeting, September 2nd, 2020 There was no dinner portion of the meeting, but we did have a pledge of allegiance at the 7:02 PM start of the meeting.
