Accident Reports

Each Chapter has its own personality that is reflected in its members and local culture. The common thread you will find at EAA Chapter 839 is an interest in enjoying aviation with others who have a similar interest and the desire to share aviation with the local community through fly-ins, picnics, workshops, Young Eagle rallies and more. We are an Active Chapter with a new hangar and lots of exciting projects in the works. Contact us soon for more information!

Troop 102 Flyin Breakfast

Boy Scout Troop 102 is planning their second annual Flyin Breakfast on Saturday, June 1st from 8am to noon.

They will be using our hangar and serving pancakes, sausage, orange juice, & coffee. All you can eat for $8.00 a head!

We would like to offer Young Eagle flights that morning and could use some pilots and planes. Maybe we could also offer Eagle flights.

May Meeting Continues Cooking Season

Our June 12th meeting is at 8:00pm and continues our cooking season! The grill will fire up at 6:00 pm with burger and dogs on the menu. Rod Hatcher, the "master chef", has been hoodwinked into continuing to cook.

Hamburgers are a whopping three bucks and dogs are 2 bucks. Chips and condiments are free!

Motor Project Restarts!

Art Schwedler has announced that work on rebuilding the 65 horse power engine will resume on Saturday, April 27th at noon sharp!

All chapter members are invited to work and learn with Art on how to rebuld an aircraft engine. No need to bring tools or money, just a willingness to help and learn.

Hangar Receives New (Used) Refrigerator

At our April meeting we discussed replacing our aging refrigerator and a vote was taken and passed to buy a new one for up to $600. However, Dave Morris spoke up and said he had a used one we could have if no one else in his family wanted it.

Well, Dave checked with family members and let Rod Hatcher know it was available.

On Saturday, April 27, an expedition was mounted to pick up the refrigerator! Bill Barry, Tony Bartolo and Rod Hacher loaded into Rod's old Toyota 4-Runner and pulled a trailer over to Dave's house wher the appliance was retrieved from the basement and transported back to the hangar.

The following day, Sunday, Rod Hatcher and Fred Duckloe transferred the food, beer and soda from the old refrigerator into the new/used one and we are ready to go!

Thank you Dave! We appreciate your generosity!
