Additional Activities

On the first Saturday after the first Wednesday of the month (the first Saturday after our monthly meeting), Chapter 943 hosts a no cost hot dog lunch for members, guests, and any individuals interested in supporting the chapter and local aviation interests. The lunch is heald from 11:30 AM until 12:30 PM at our Chapter Hangar #1 located in the first row of T-hangers, just off taxiway A, facing south toward the open airfield.

In addition chapter members participate with other local volunteers for local Airport Support Activities throughout the year helping improve airport operations and safety, and to improve fellowship between Chapter members and the community at large.

Our Membership

Our members come from all walks of life, commercial pilots, aviation instructors, experimental aircraft builders, private and student pilots, and people with an interest in the community and aviation in general.

We encourage anyone with an interest in aviation to join the Chapter or volunteer to help with our programs. Together we can “slip the surly bonds of earth . . . and dance the skies on laughter-silvered wings.”
