This is positively a work of art, as you can see in the photos below. (You will note that the “drive shaft” for the pedals is connected to rotate the propeller). Color scheme, panel layout, and N number mimic that of our chapter build RV-12 which recently took flight.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPriceA.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5806\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPriceA-1024x690.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"411\" height=\"277\" /></a><a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPrizeB.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5807\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPrizeB-829x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"213\" height=\"263\" /></a><a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPrizeC.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5808\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPrizeC-769x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"197\" height=\"263\" /></a>\r\n<h3>2nd Prize: a Flying Pup Whirlygig</h3>\r\nShow the neighbors your interest in aviation and adventurous pups!\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/2ndPrize.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5809\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/2ndPrize.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"302\" height=\"226\" /></a>\r\n<h3>3rd Prize: An autographed and framed Chile Flight poster</h3>\r\nDesigned by chapter member Phil Thompson, the unsigned posters are for sale by EAA 179.  Our 3rd raffle prize is a special framed and signed poster.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/3rdPrize.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5810\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/3rdPrize.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"316\" height=\"473\" /></a>','LOEFI 2022 - Raffle','','inherit','closed','closed','','5719-revision-v1','','','2022-09-13 17:56:22','2022-09-13 23:56:22','',5719,'https://eaa179.org/?p=5813',0,'revision','',0),(6074,2,'2023-02-20 11:38:54','2023-02-20 18:38:54','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;

Here is the description from the monthly IMC announcement from EAA:\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><i>EAA\'s IMC Club provides organized \"hangar flying\" focused on building instrument flying knowledge and skills.  The Club promotes a safety culture through continued education and believes that we develop safety and proficiency through education and real life experience. Monthly meetings offer an opportunity to share in-flight experiences and valuable safety tips.</i></p>\r\nMeetings typically focus on a scenario “you were flying along and then this happened – what do you do\". Here is an example from a recent meeting:\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><i>You take off from a non-towered airport, without any controller frequency in range. You have an IFR flight plan on file but not activated. You climb into instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) at a much lower altitude than expected. — NOW what do you do. </i></p>\r\nAfter the dealing with the scenario, a quiz is presented that can deal with regulations, the approach charts, the enroute charts, weather, and other facets of flying IFR. So if you are interested in learning more about IFR flight or simply wish to participate in problem solving, you are invited to attend or tune in via ZOOM to this and future meetings.\r\n\r\n<strong>How to participate:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li><b>In-person </b>in the Bode Aviation conference room, 2nd floor, next to the café.  Meet up at the café prior for breakfast or after for lunch.</li>\r\n 	<li><b>OR Join</b><b> Remotely</b>: Visit the <a href=\"https://www.faasafety.gov/search/Default.aspx?keywords=%22Double+Eagle%22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Site Search</em> page for Events at KAEG</a>.

This is positively a work of art, as you can see in the photos below. Note that the “drive shaft” for the pedals is connected to rotate the propeller - so fun!  The prop turns as the plane moves forward!  Color scheme, panel layout, and N number mimics that of our chapter build RV-12 which recently took flight.  Depends on weight but typically, the pilot can be up to age 7.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPriceA.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5806\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPriceA-1024x690.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"411\" height=\"277\" /></a><a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPrizeB.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5807\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPrizeB-829x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"213\" height=\"263\" /></a><a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPrizeC.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5808\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/1stPrizeC-769x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"197\" height=\"263\" /></a>\r\n<h3>2nd Prize:  Flying Pup Whirlygig ($70 value)</h3>\r\nShow the neighbors your interest in aviation and adventurous pups!\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/2ndPrize.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5809\" src=\"https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/2ndPrize.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"302\" height=\"226\" /></a>\r\n<h3>3rd Prize: An autographed and framed Chile Flight poster -

Pilots opted to have their aircraft included in the judging when they registered.\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>A team of Chapter members then appraised each aircraft, considering appearance and other subjective considerations. Judging took place between 0830 and 1130.</li>\r\n 	<li>The public was also given the opportunity to cast a ballot for the \"People\'s Choice\" award. Counting the ballots, the judges found that there was a tie, so the award was given to each.</li>\r\n 	<li>Based on information provided by the pilots when they registered, the award for \"Most Distant Fly-in\" was given to the pilot from most distant home airport in \'air miles\'.</li>\r\n 	<li>Trophies were presented on stage to the award winners at 1330.
