At the January chapter meeting, we will be handing out recognition awards sent by EAA headquarters.  We also have a great guest speaker who will present on "Angel Flight West". Joe Shelton is a local pilot who bases his airplane at Watsonville. His topic is how Angel Flight West's volunteer pilots provide free transportation for those in need of medical help as well as those with other needs.  Joe is a former Angel Flight West "Wing Leader" responsible for Northern California Angel Flight West pilots.  He is currently on the Angel Flight West Board of Directors, was recently elected as Secretary, was Founder and Chair of the Safety Committee, and is currently Chair of the Operations Committee. Joe will answer your questions and encourage you to join Angel Flight West and help provide transportation for those in need.

Doors open at 7:00. Meeting starts at 7:30
