We are meeting at Louie’s Hangar (Hangar N38 @ KVPZ) for some hands on aviation.
This month’s planned topic is:
PAINT STRIPPING AND METAL PREP!
This month’s planned topic is:
PAINT STRIPPING AND METAL PREP!
At previous HANDS ON! events we have…
1) Had a rivet clinic and drilled out and removed rivets in a wing.
2) Taken apart a metal wing and retrieved the main spar.
3) Taken apart a continental engine.
4) Taken apart a fabric wing.
We are looking for new members! Join EAA Chapter 104 and our local A&P IA for some HANDS ON learning. Message or post if you do not know how to get to hangar N38 at Porter County Regional Airport.
Louie is in hangar N38 on the end with the park bench.
Two seminars are planned: 1) Pilot Proficiency and WINGS; 2) Stabilized Approach & Go-Around
Pilot Proficiency and WINGS:
Proficiency training benefits both professional and general aviation pilots. Pilots who participate in regular proficiency training are much less likely to experience accidents. Completion of any phase of WINGS satisfies the 14 CFR 61.56 requirements for flight reviews.
Stabilized Approach & Go-Around:
Many general aviation accidents have resulted from loss of control and/or collisions with obstacles or terrain during approaches for landing. Studies suggest that stabilized approaches are highly effective in reducing the number and severity of loss of control events. General aviation pilots should review stabilized approach criteria, go-around procedures, and decision points before each landing to reduce reaction times when faced with a potentially hazardous situation.
Select Number: GL0397920
For those flying in, park on the ramp in front of the administration building. Those driving to the event may park in the lot south of the EAA clubhouse on the south side of the field.
The FAASTeam would like to thank Ken Litko and President Larry Whitlow of EAA Chapter 104 for hosting this event. Coffee and donuts will be available.
Our December 2019 meeting will be at the EAA Chapter 104 club room at KVPZ.
Rick Rozhon has offered to talk about alternators and regulator w/r/t his aircraft, since he had a recent failure.
