Minutes: November 19, 2005 Meeting of EAA Chapter 110


The meeting was called to order by President John Feemster at 1:35 pm  
at the Wings Of History Clubhouse. All Chapter officers were in  
attendance.

Old Business:

1.  Minutes of the October meeting were accepted and approved.

2.  There was no Treasurer’s report.

3.  The issue of paying rent to Wings of History for use of the  
clubhouse was addressed.  Jack Sunseri, along with several other  
chapter members are also members of Wings of History.  Jack will see  
if this will mitigate the requirement to pay Wings of History rent  
next year.  This issue will be resolved at our next meeting.

New Business:
1.       John Feemster polled the attendees to see if anyone was  
interested in serving as chapter officers in 2006.  No one was  
interested in the positions of President, Vice President or  
Treasurer, so the existing officers will serve in 2006.  Vaughn  
McIlrath agreed to serve as Secretary and Mary Doherty and John Gould  
volunteered to help him with meeting minutes.   A motion was made and  
seconded to elect:

         President – John Feemster

         Vice President -  George Watson

         Treasurer – John Gould

         Secretary – Vaughn McIlrath

As Chapter 110 officers for 2006.  No objections were voiced and the  
officers were unanimously elected.  There terms will start in  
December 2005.


2.  John Feemster polled the attendees to see if there was interest  
in having a Xmas Potluck and Gift Exchange at our next meeting at  
1:30 on December 17.  There was sufficient interest so John laid out  
the rules:

A.   Members can bring guests.

B.    Each attendee must bring food to share – John will provide a  
ham.  Suggestions for attendees are salads, side dishes, deserts,  
drinks.

C.    Each attendee must bring a wrapped gift to include in the gift  
exchange.  The gift must cost less than $10.00, be wrapped with no  
labels and be as anonymous as possible.

D.   Attendees will draw lots to see who gets first choice at a gift,  
without opening it first, or can take someone else’s gift.  This is  
generally a fun event and more details will be provided at the potluck.


3.  Vaughn McIlrath made a motion to make Laurie Dieck a life member  
of the chapter.  After discussion the motion was amended to make her  
an honorary life member of the chapter.  The motion was seconded and  
carried.  Laurie Dieck is now an Honorary Life Member of Chapter 110.

4.  Mary Doherty asked if anything has been resolved as to  
availability of hangars at Hollister or south County airports.   
Nothing has changed at either location.

5.  John Feemster reported that he contacted the FAA about  
establishing an Ultralight Flight Pattern at South County Airport.   
John was told by the FAA that this was an issue for the airport  
management to resolve.  John drafted a map and a letter with details  
of the proposed pattern and sent them to Carl Honaker, the county  
director of airports.  John informed Carl that it was Director’s  
decision to determine if there would be a special pattern for  
ultralights.  John has not received a response but he will follow up.

6.  A motion was made and seconded to adjourn the business portion of  
the meeting and proceed to the tutorial.  The motion carried and the  
meeting was adjourned.
