Oh how I’d love to participate in face- to-face meetings and see the friends I’ve made over the past seven years as a member of the Chap- ter. Irene and I have always felt so welcome at our events and enjoyed the camaraderie of the mem- bers. The pandemic has made it impossible for us to get together unless we stay in our cars and are six feet away from one another while wearing masks. There were two times when we were able to see each other but I only made it to the one at Seneca Creek Park. It was fun and sparsely attended as we expected. Nevertheless it was fun. As you know from previous “Commanders” I didn’t make it to the tour out in western Virginia but enough members did to make it a success under the pandemic conditions. -

Aut 221 Automatic Transmission/Transaxle
AUT 221 (A2) AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE Prerequisites: TRN 120 Corequisites: None COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course covers operation, diagnosis, service, and repair of automatic transmissions/transaxles. Topics include hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, and electrical/electronic operation of automatic drive trains and the use of appropriate service tools and equipment. Upon completion, students should be able to explain operational theory and diagnose and repair automatic drive trains. Course Hours per Week: Class, 2; Lab Hours, 3; Semester Hours Credits, 3. SAFETY DISCLAIMER: Automotive work presents many hazards. A moment’s carelessness can cause injury to oneself or to others. Such mishaps can occur quickly due, in part, to the nature of the industrial tools used in automotive work. The weight of automobiles and the equipment used to fix them can even cause fatal injuries. Therefore, great care must always be taken in checking out equipment before use, and in using that equipment to work on automobiles. As we work to insure the safety of everyone in the Durham Tech automotive lab, it is the instructor’s responsibility to introduce students to equipment and to advise them on its safe operation. Those health and safety procedures are also presented in each textbook for each course in the automotive program. Students are responsible for mastery of that safety information. Durham Tech holds each student in every class responsible for reading and applying all of the information regarding personal and public safety and personal and public health in the required text. While working in the Durham Tech automotive lab, safety glasses must be worn by everyone. -

Hummingbirds primarily eat flower nectar, tree sap, insects and pollen. The hummingbird’s fast breathing rate, fast heartbeat and high body temperature require that they eat often. They also require an enormous amount of food each day. Hummingbirds have a long tongue which they use to lick their food at a rate of up to 13 licks per second.

Learn About the International Model Car Builders' Museum!
Learn about the International Model Car Builders’ Museum! e International Model Car Builders’ Museum was founded in 1987 to preserve the history of the scale vehicle hobby. Before the Museum opened its doors, early leaders of the Museum spent years acquiring historical information, letters between hobby person- alities, collections of the famed magazines of the Sixties as well as obtaining models built by historic builders whose craftsmanship helped dene the hobby. From the earliest days of the Museum, one chief goal of the eort was to gather together the largest possible collection of information, models, artifacts and documents so that hobbyists and schol- ars, decades in the future, would have a central place to research the wonderful history of the great model car hobby. In 2000, the Museum moved to a 1,200 square foot facility organized by subject matter, and a very substantial in Sandy, Utah. At the new location, there was nally collection of vintage and contemporary paints, adhesives, enough room to unpack the many historic items previously putties and Auto World items were nally unpacked and purchased or donated. For the rst time, the library was placed in cabinets. e Museum also hosts a bank of ling organized and thousands of magazines were placed in cabinets (lled with thousands of printed items), dozens of archival plastic sleeves and then stored in protective binders. event videos, plaques, air boxes, Augie Hiscano and Mike Also, models from both famed and obscure modelers were Johnson models, and the Dave Shuklis collection and more. e Museum features the famed Oakland Roadster Show Diorama and received, by donation in 2009, the incredible “TV Merc” from the family of legendary builder John Estlow who passed away before he could visit the Museum. -

F L Y I N G H u b c a p s A Publication of the Central Florida Chapter The Studebaker Drivers Club, Inc. MAY 2015 LETTER FROM THE EDITOR WOW! TAX DAY IS BEHIND US. TIME TO ENJOY SPRING! May is a great time of the year, especially for those of us who live here in Florida. Most of us were smart enough to move here from the cold country, while a few of us were lucky enough to be born here. I frequently receive Studebaker newsletters from Chapters in places like Syracuse, New York and Eau Claire, Wisconsin. I love getting their newsletters and frequently I get something that I think you folks will enjoy. For instance, the April Badger Bullet-N featured their Joke of the Month that I’m sure they won’t mind my sharing it with you. It goes like this---Fifty-one years ago, Herman James, a North Carolina mountain man, was drafted by the Army. On his first day in basic training, the Army issued him a comb. That afternoon the Army barber sheared off all his hair. On his second day, the Army issued Herman a toothbrush. That after- noon the Army dentist yanked seven of his teeth. On the third day, the Army issued him a jock strap. The Army has been looking for Herman for 51 years. After you finish laughing at that one, get on out there and work on your Studebaker, or find one of our fellow members who still has a Studebaker, or more, like several of our members who own multiple Studebakers.
