Come to Our Free Monthly Meetings

We hold monthly meetings where our presenters speak on a broad variety of topics: aviation and flying safety, how to build airplanes, flying around the country in an open cockpit aircraft, flying a blimp, and many other topics. Many of our programs are authorized by the FAA for WINGS [continuing education] credits. The meetings are free and open to all, and usually occur on the first Tuesday of each month.

Our Next Meeting

– – How Do I Know I am Too Old to Fly? with Rhon Williams – –

Many of us have seen a pilot friend who we worry that they no longer have “the right stuff”. Some of us are seeing in ourselves hints that aging may be catching up to us. There is definitely a time when we should turn in the keys, and enjoy telling stories instead of wondering if we are still safe. But, how do we know?  This presentation will address the physiological aspects of aging and how they affect being a pilot, with ideas of how we will know when to stop flying as PIC.

ABOUT OUR SPEAKER:

Rhon Williams is an EAA Chapter 92 member and FAASTeam Representative. Rhon holds a Commercial-SMEL, Helicopter, Glider and CFI-AIG ratings and is an aircraft owner. He is co-owner of a Cirrus SR22, and previously a Mooney, in which he and his wife enjoyed many flying trips. They included flying northwest to Banff, northeast to New Jersey, southeast to Bahamas, and southwest to Cabo San Lucas. He is an active home-builder having completed a plans-built Early Bird Jenny which first flew in December 2015. He is also President of EAA Chapter 96 in Compton, CA.
