May 24, 2008:

The Fly-In Sat May 24th was a big success even though the weather was not what we would have hoped for. The morning weather was good enough to fly Young Eagle's though and six of our pilots flew 64 kids plus a few Grey Eagles and a hand full of firemen. The turn out from chapter members to assist as ground crew and with registration, soda sales and general assistance was tremendous. Thank you all.

October 30, 2004     St. Louis Downtown Airport    After two consecutive rain-outs, the Chapter's volunteer pilots turned out for one more try despite a forecast for increasingly strong winds and light to moderate turbulence.  The sky was brilliantly clear and the students from Riverview Gardens school were eager to fly, so four pilots took to the sky with 15 smiling kids.  Larry Frey coordinated and photographed the event and Kathy Frey, Gary Enochs, Terry Ernst, and Dick Kamm handled the registration and ground crew duties. 

The pilots were Dr. Henry Hurd (Cessna at CPS),

Wayland Downen (Cessna from Flying Dutchman),

Don Karr (Cessna from Columbia Sackman),

and Bob McDaniel (Mooney at CPS.)

The Young Eagles received extra class credit for interviewing their pilots.
