REMINDER! Social time before the chapter meeting!
If you would like, feel free to bring snacks or drinks to share.
The next chapter meeting will be on Sunday, June 12th at 2:30 pm. As the weather will be warm we will meet at the hanger.
Agenda:
- Completion of the PedalPlane project. I have proposed moving the project to my hanger at Moraine Airpark. Plenty of space, electricity and tools.
- Speakers for future meetings. Several possible speakers have been suggested in previous emails.

STOL demonstration fatal accident, May 20, 2022, Wayne, NE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LPAcRPgFfg (good explanation of the possible cause)
The proposed cause of this accident is encountering wake turbulence whine doing an S-turn at low altitude and slow speed. When I was learning to fly back in the 70’s I learned about wake turbulence being caused by large commercial aircraft not small private aircraft. Is this something we need to pay attention to?
