Newsletter Notes Racine EAA Chapter 838Contact Racine EAA Chapter 838 Contact Monthly Newsletter July 2018 Volume XXIX Issue 7 http://eaa838.org/ Meetings Third Thursday’s 7:00 pm Dinner at 6:00 pm Newsletter Notes Welcome to YOUR EAA Chapter 838 monthly newsletter. Send any articles to [email protected]. I will continue to add pictures that anyone has taken, if you send them to me. Ken Sack Do not miss our next meeting on July 19th. As usual, dinner at 6pm and meeting at 7pm. Craig Czerwinski, AGI, IGI, MBA, who is an Aeronautics Instructor at Gateway Technical College will tell us about drones. He is teaching a class at Gateway about drones. He also is a pilot at Batten, and a prospective chapter member. Carl Bumpurs continues to be our rental coordinator. He will continue to do this, but he has asked for someone to handle marketing new clients to rent our building. If you are interested, please contact Carl at 262-497-6446 or Ken Sack at 262-488-3807. We have a great facility, but we need to get the word out. If you know anyone or any group that wants to rent the building, contact Carl. No one has contacted us, so we need your help. The chapter’s picnic will be held at 6:00 pm on Thursday August 16th. The chapter will be providing the hamburgers, brats, and hot dogs, as well as refreshments. A donation bucket will be provided, and we are asking to consider $5 per person as a donation. Everyone who comes is asked to bring a dish to pass. We had over 60 people last year, and we hope to have more this year. In early August, we will ask for an RSVP from you. Spouses and friends are invited. We also will invite Post 218, CAP cadets and seniors, Young Aviator staff, participants, and alumni, as well as the airport staff. On October 13-14 we will have our second pancake breakfast this year. This time we will include something new, a health fair. Peter Bianco and our CAP cadre will be organizing the pancakes. Chapter members will be asked to volunteer again to cook and serve the pancakes. I am looking for someone to organize the health fair portion. We have many people willing to contact agencies, but I need someone to coordinate who has been asked, who is coming, and put them in the proper place in the museum. Here are some ideas that we are thinking of. If you have any additional ideas let me know and let me know if you would like to organize the effort. - Free blood pressure testing; we can ask Ascension, Aurora, Visiting Nurses, or anywhere else - Tables for vendors, like Society Assets, chiropractors, clinics, River Bend, Eco Justice center, and many, many other places. o We will not charge vendors this time, but maybe next time, if the idea works out. - Officer Friendly, Police or Sheriff K9 units, etc. - We need help getting the word out about the pancake breakfast and health fair. Page 1 of 17 Phil Fountain repaired the storage room in the back of the museum. He moved everything out and repaired the back wall which had suffered water damage. He fixed the water leakage and replaced the drywall. He moved both simulators in our new Simulator room. We have placed all of the items that were in the storage room to the museum. If anyone wants anything, please take it. We plan to save all the photos, slides, and important papers. One of the simulators belongs to Young Aviators, and the other simulator that was in the library has been moved to the Simulator room. Phil thanks for a great job. The chapter and Young Aviators also purchased a used RedBird simulator. It will be moved into the library to be used for Young Eagles and other areas not defined yet. We will have a new policy about use of both Chapter simulators, as well as any possible costs to use them. We purchased, and Phil Fountain installed Automatic flushes for both urinals in the men’s restroom.

Tracy Miller EAA #794015 Young Eagles Coordinator, EAA Chapter 838 Aviation Explorer Post 218 If you know any youth ages 14-21 who might be interested, please contact post advisors at [email protected] The Post continues to help out our Young Eagle Rally’s by teaching part of the ground school, helping out with the simulator, and anything else that needs to be done. They are preparing for AirVenture. Post 218 has 7 youth and 4 adults camping with us at the Aviation Exploration Base in Oshkosh. On June 14th, the post went to the Milwaukee Airport Fire and Rescue. On June 28th at the Post meeting Jim & Carol brought their hot air balloon "Pure Magic" for us to see. They brought crew member, Pete. He built his own experimental balloon. Not only did they tell us what it takes to do ballooning, but we got hands on experience as we helped unload the trailer, set up the balloon and pack it up again when we were done. Fidget did a great job on the crown line keeping the huge balloon (80 feet tall) from moving around too much, Rebecca and Laura kept the lines straight as the balloon was filled.

He took me up in the Pitts Model 12 a few years ago – a beast of an airplane with a ra- dial engine that turns “the wrong way.” I give him a ride in my Cirrus. And I was in his Piper Cub for a landing on a moving pickup truck. In late 2007, I decided it was time to get a bit more serious about aerobatic flight. And about that time, Greg (an Aerobatic Competency Evaluator, or ACE) became the 14th person certified by the National Association of Flight Instructors as Master CFI-Aerobatic. We ar- ranged a date, and headed to Ashville, Alabama on November 13. A little over three years ago, Greg and spouse Cora began con- struction of Sky Country Lodge – a bed-and-breakfast flight school located on an isolated grass strip near Birmingham. The lodge is a beautiful open-concept design, with two private bedrooms with baths for Greg’s typical workload of two students at a time. The hangar houses Greg’s 1946 Piper Cub (used in his comedy act) and nearly-new Super Decathlon, in which he teaches. My early aero- batic experience was in the same make and model.

Picking up cigarette butts, empty water bottles, etc. If you see weeds… pull them. We all need to chip in. That also includes adding a few bucks to your membership renewals. The extra maintenance dollars really help our field quite a bit. Every little bit helps. Remember the field will be closed for the “One Eighth Air Force Scale Fly In” on October 18‐19.

The Doolittle Raiders Doolittle's Tokyo Raiders America's First Response to Pearl Harbor On April 18, 1942, 16 B-25 Mitchell medium bombers launched from the deck of the USS Hornet to attack Japan. Led by Lt. Col. James H. Doolittle, the daring mission was America’s first response to Pearl Harbor and stands as one of the most courageous events of World War II. Although the raid caused minimal damage, American morale soared from the depths to which it had plunged following the Pearl Harbor attack.
