PRESIDENT, VINTAGE AIRCRAFT ASSOCIATION
Friends
t has been a great start to the
spring flying season. Sun 'n
Fun was a really good time for
me, and a wonderful oppor
tunity to renew a lot of old friend
ships. I think it's now best that I
stop talking about the weather in
this column, because every time I
bring it up, it gets a little weirder. I
was in Oshkosh on the first of May,
and as I was cleaning my camper af
ter getting it out of storage, it actu
ally started spitting snow. So, at the
risk of causing a hurricane in Wis
consin, I'm done talking about the
weather, at least until next spring!
In the April "Straight & Level"
column, I mentioned how impressed
I was with a Diamond Level Friends
of the Red Barn donation from VAA
Chapter 11 in Brookfield, Wisconsin.
Well, ladies and gents, I am pleased
to report on yet another Diamond
Level donation from VAA Chapter
10 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. You folks
are also to be commended for such
a generous gesture to your Vin
tage organization. It should also be
noted that a number of folks from
VAA Chapter 10 have supported the
Friends of the Red Barn fund from
its inception; some contribute not
only as part of the Chapter, but also
as individuals. Many thanks to you
all, and please be assured that we
will be diligent in using your dona
tions in the best possible fashion
for all the VAA membership's bene
efit at the annual event we all know
as EAA AirVenture. These dona
tions are put into a restricted fund
that is used only for the purpose
of supporting and enhanCing the
Vintage activities at EAA AirVen
ture each year. I would be remiss

Shawano Fly-Out
The annual fly-out to Shawano
will take place on Saturday, July
30. The sign-up sheet will be at the
desk in the Red Barn. The briefing
will take place Saturday at 7:00 a.m.
on the porch of the Barn. Last year
we had great weather and record at
tendance, and everyone had a great
time. The city of Shawano really
goes out of its way to make us feel
welcome. We hope you can join us.
Other Great Stuff
In the special events depart
ment, there will be another "party

CALL FOR
VAA
Nominate your favorite aviator for the EAA Vintage Aircraft Association
Hall of Fame. A huge honor could be bestowed upon that man or woman
working next to you on your airplane, sitting next to you in the Chapter
meeting, or walking next to you at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh. Think
about the people in yOUI""Lircte of aviation friends, that mechanic, that
photographer, that pilot who has shared innumerable tips with you and
with many others. They could be the next VAA Hall of Fame inductees-but
only if they are nominated.
The person you nominate can be a citizen of any country and may be
living or deceased, and his or her involvement in vintage aviation must have
occurred between 1950 and the present day. His or her contribution could
be in the areas of flying; design; mechanical or aerodynamic developments;
administration; writing; some other vital, relevant field; or any combination
of fields that support aviation. The person you nominate must be or have
been a member of the Vintage Aircraft Association, and preference is given
to those whose actions have contributed to the VAA in some way, perhaps
as a volunteer; a writer; a photographer; or a pilot sharing stories, preserving
aviation history, and encouraging new pilots and enthusiasts.
To nominate someone is easy. It just takes a little time and a little

Decisions, Decisions!
We have to be
aware that the
decision process
to not only begin,
but also to
continue the flight,
is an ongoing
process that does
not end until we
have landed ...
Let's take a look at that process .
We have a couple of acronyms to
help us out. The first one is the
PAVE checklist. It stands for Pilot,
Aircraft, enVironment, and Exter
nal pressures . From the moment
the thought of making the flight
first enters our mind, until the suc
cessful conclusion of that flight,
it is a checklist that we have to be
constantly reviewing.
The first element is the Pilot.
Certainly in advance of the flight
we have to consider if we are going
to be current for the flight. Will our
Gopher broke
What brought all this on was
that a couple mornings ago, with
the frost on the pumpkins, I went
out to fly. I dragged the old 182 out
of the hangar after I'd preflighted it
(I'm no fool! I preflighted it inside
the hangar even before I opened
the door, out of the wind and cold,
where [ could do it in a leisurely
manner.), cranked it up (yes, I did
pull it through in the hangar), and
almost as soon as it began to run,
pulled on the cabin heat and the
defroster. Where, oh, where is that
WARM air? What the heck is that
Oily bird
One other thing. Brian Van Wag
nen was here last week, and I'm goin'
around the 182 with a can of Aero
Lube spray and lubing the hinges, etc.
I got a real nice informative lecture.
The theory is that the Aero Lube is a
grease and will actually clog up the
pores of oil-light bearings. It would
be better if light oil were used rather
than the grease base. It will penetrate
the bearing surfaces much better and
allow the lubricant to flo~

Swifts are always present in numbers at Sun 'n Fun, and it's always fun to
see what the Swift folks come up with for color schemes. John Davis Jr.'s
nice gold and red Swift is seen here taxiing out for departure, presumably
back to his home base of Gainesville, Georgia.
Restored a decade
and a half ago by Wel
don "Willie " Ropp and
mounted on a pair of Edo 2435 floats, this Curtiss-Wright Travel Air 15E
was flown again by Willie's daughter, Belle Hutchins (inset), of Lake
Wales. Willie just celebrated his 93rd birthday, and it was great seeing
Willie and the Travel Air at the annual splash-in steak-fry dinner.
