Assist hanger 63030 Powell Butte Road on the south west corner of KBDN.
Bringi your own dinner, and we’ll eat right away before food get
cold. Now that COVID is, hopefully, past, maybe time to discuss other
meal options? After we eat and chat there are always things for us to
discuss.

As always, many thanks go out to Mike Robertson, and Mike Wissing,
for letting us use their space.

Sunny and hot, locally, is the forecast for our Fly-out day. Possible

Fly-out():

Our June Fly-out, June 19th, was short and sweet. We headed out extra
early to arrive in Prineville Airport (S39). Arriving at 9am, we ere
the last to show up for the EAA Chapter 617 monthly pancake breakfast.
Turnout was good, with pilots coming in from many other Central Oregon
airports.

HB 2434:

Thanks to the efforst of the Oregon Pilots Association, HB 2434
passed! The $0.11 per galloon Aviation Fuel tax will continue. That goes
a long way to General Aviation paying is fair share of airport expenses.
