The May Chapter meeting od EAA Chapter 284 will be held on Sunday May 21, 2017 at 2:30 PM. We had tentatively planned to meet at the Caesar Creek Soaring Society. However, give that Sunday’s weather report call for rain and thunderstorms we will not meet at the glider port. We will be meeting at our usual location at Red Stewart Airfield (40I).
