2008 Fly-in/Pig-out

Saturday, August 23rd at 1:00 PM is when we will be holding our annual Fly-in/Pig-out at Fisher Field in Middleboro. The event will include a display of member's aircraft, a sumptuous feast and aviation related raffle, not to mention a great opportunity to socialize with folks interested in flying and building experimental aircraft. This is a great opportunity to display an aircraft a member may have for sale. There is plenty of parking and weather permitting the opportunity to fly in to the event. The cost is $20.00 per person with advance reservation and ticket payment required. All are invited. For more information contact Chapter member Marty Himmelfarb at (508) 759-7896 or at mhimmelfarb@comcast.net.  You can also find more details on the Fly-in page.

 


PRESIDENT'S CORNER

Hi Everyone!

It is hard to believe that June is here already! This month we will have our annual cook out / meeting at Fisher's Field. The club will provide the burgers, fixings and drinks and it would be great if some of our members would bring some side dishes such as potato salad or macaroni salad or other interesting dishes! All members and their families are welcome to attend. If the weather is good we can do some flying as well. The fun starts anytime after 5:00 pm so don't miss out. See you at the cook out!

Fly Safe,
Mike

Condition Inspection Checklist

Randy Moore has supplied a checklist that worked well for him in the annual condition inspection of his experimental airplane. It's derived from the FAA regs and the sample on the EAA website.

When Randy went up for his Repairman's Certificate, the inspector liked seeing it.  It probably should be in your materials to show at the Repairman's Certificate "interview" along with your build log.

Randy says the inspector will want:
1. Proof of age - driver's license or pilot's license
2. US citizenship - Passport
3. Picture of the data plate and airplane
4. Copy of the Airworthiness Certificate
5. Copy of Registration
6. Form 8610-2 (2 copies) be careful to fill out EXACTLY like the sample in AC65-23A
7. Copy of Operating limits - copy of logbook entry for certification
8. Bill of Sale or copy of the builder's affidavit
9. While it's not strictly required that you complete the 40 hr. phase 1 test, they'd like it.
10. Copy of logbook entries for certification (bring logs - make sure you have a separate log for the engine)

Thanks, Randy, for submitting this info and checklist!
