  • Stanton Airfield News Grass Roots Flyer! May 2018
    Stanton Airfield News Grass Roots Flyer! May 2018 Airport Manager Report: Stanton Sport Aviation, Inc. held its annual stockholders meeting on Monday, April 30th. Reports from officers and committees were heard and elections were held for 3 board of director’s positions. Congratulations, welcome and thanks to new board members Tim Bjork and Bill Gacki for your willingness to contribute to the success of Stanton. And thanks to current President Phil Schmalz who agreed to be re-elected and continue to serve Stanton. (Left) Treasurer George Penokie giving the financial report. (Right) Left to right – Bill Gacki, Tim Bjork and Phil Schmalz. Thanks to the “Friends of Historic Carleton Airport”, new flooring has been installed in the front area of the building – now used as a large meeting room with office and display space. New window blinds have also been installed. Note that the original runway layout in the floor was maintained where it was. “A clean airplane is a happy airplane”. After the winter months of storage or non-use, now’s a great time to give it a thorough wash job as well as a thorough inspection. Cleaning allows a much better view of small imperfections or defects that may need to be dealt with. It’s also a good time to deal with grease, oil, fuel and air to ensure a safe flight. There’s an awareness campaign on “seeing motorcycles” on roadways that applies similarly to situational awareness in flying. In the airport environment it is critically important to “see” other aircraft in flight as well as “see” what’s on the runway and taxiway areas.

Last minute details can be discussed at the June chapter meeting. The June 20th meeting will be at the Airlake Airport. We will meet at Ron Oehler’ hangar.
