CFI Tips #2: Hazards on the Ground
by Paul Lupton CFII

Flying is fun and we all agree requires special alertness. We’ll never get in the air, however, if inattention causes bent aluminum while on the ground. Ramp and taxiing incidents are common enough to warrant some thoughts. Last issue the topic of pilot attitude was discussed. Perhaps one of the greater causes of ground incidents is the attitude that little risk is present on the ground so alertness can be reserved for actual flying. How absurd! Ground “fender bender” incidents can be costly and embarrassing.

A recent incident at a Wisconsin airport, (not ETB) was witnessed wherein a beautiful Piper Senica had its nose gear collapsed by the ramp tug. The pilot firmly set the brakes at the gas pumps and left the area. Aside from the interesting discussion of legal liability is the more important question of preventability. Did the pilot have to set the brakes so firmly that the wheels were virtually locked? Could the pilot have stayed with the aircraft until fueling was complete, or could the ramp attendant be cautioned about the brakes? A lot of anger and expense could have been avoided.

Taxiing or even take-offs with tow bars still in place are not funny. Not only can a prop strike occur but also the tow bar becomes a deadly projectile.

Taxiing in high winds contribute to a number of incidents annually. High wing aircraft are more susceptible. The combination of sudden braking, a quartering tailwind, and a turn in the direction opposite of the wind can yield a dangerous effect. Deceleration, tipping the center of gravity forward, raises the trailing edge creating a “backward angle of attack” resulting in lifting the tail enough to cause either a prop strike or a complete roll over. Every basic training manual discusses proper positioning of controls when taxiing. Why do pilots fail to heed this advice?

Depth perception of wingtips from the cockpits is poor at best. A safe buffer zone on all sides when taxiing near buildings or other aircraft is inexpensive insurance against expensive repairs. When in doubt: STOP, ask for assistance in walking a wing.

A tail dragger incident was witnessed once following an aerobatic performance as the pilot taxied in front of the crowd and attempted a quick stop resulting in an expensive prop strike.

Heads down in the cockpit, with the engine running, studying the checklist has lead to more than one aircraft creeping into another aircraft with the ugly sound of bending aluminum. The infamous incident at Airventure where an aircraft taxied into an occupied tent is the nightmare no-one needs.

Night taxiing brings special hazards. Open trenches, unlighted equipment, and poor markings all contribute to the need for extra alertness and slower taxiing. At tower airports a request for a Progressive Taxi clearance can help ease you through a maze of intersections and turns.

Next time: that new buzz phrase CRM.

Air Camp 2002
by Paul Lupton

For the third consecutive year the Chapter will host an Air Camp for teens. The program will be essentially the same as last year. Dates for this year are June 20-25. As always the program runs on volunteer energy. New volunteers are always needed. If you like hands on projects and sharing your love of aviation we need you. Give me (Paul Lupton) a call at 629-4445. At this point most slots need filling. Creative ideas for improving the program are welcome too.

Air Camp 2002
by Paul Lupton

Kettle Moraine EAA Chapter 1158 based at the West Bend, Wisconsin Airport is pleased to offer, for the third consecutive year, a six-day aviation immersion experience for area youth ages 13 to 15 (as of 6-20-02).

The program, offered at its beautifully restored facility, will begin daily at 8AM and conclude at 4PM. Participants will be involved in various flight activities, including a personal discovery flight in a Cessna 152 trainer, where, under the guidance of an FAA certified instructor pilot the controls and instruments will be demonstrated. Members will also travel by air to the EAA headquarters and museum at Oshkosh, tour the EAA Air Academy, and ascend in a tethered hot air balloon. Through the cooperation of the Sky Ranch Flyers they will be assisted in the flight of model radio controlled aircraft.

Hands on projects have been a hallmark of Air Camp. Ranging from the construction of a balsa flying model airplane, a tissue paper hot air balloon, to the supervised use of tools in the wiring of an aircraft electrical circuit, and the construction of an actual aircraft aluminum wing section, participants will learn valuable aviation "how-to" skills. Air navigation and radio phraseology will be the topic on a day preceding the cross-country trip to Oshkosh. Chart reading and use of navigational computers will be covered.

The science and history of flight will not be neglected. Principles of physics, applied mathematics, and earth science will be linked to understanding the basis of flight, spacecraft, the inner workings of aircraft instruments, meteorology, and the use of modern GPS technology.

Career information is always a topic of interest. Aviation professionals will describe the various paths to prepare for an aviation career. An informational packet will be given to each participant, which will serve as a reference for career questions and key aviation terminology.

The guiding philosophy of Air Camp is that every astronaut, airline captain, or top gun pilot, was once a young person with a dream of flight. Air Camp seeks that spark of interest and helps give wings to that dream.

The Chapter 1158 facility located near the intersection of the airport runways will be the program's home base and is an excellent focal point for aviation activity. Lunches, snacks, museum admission, flight activities, materials, an Air Camp cap and T-shirt, are all included in the $125 tuition. Financial aid is available upon request. Parent volunteers are always welcome. Membership in Air Camp is by application. Applications are available on the chapter website: eaa1158. freeservers. com. (click on Air Camp), by visiting West Bend Air in the terminal building located at the airport or by contacting Paul Lupton, Air Camp Director at 262-629-4445. Upon acceptance, parent permission, liability waiver, and medical information will be required. Selection of applicants will be made by June 1. In event applications exceed space available preference will be given to older applicants.

Chapter 1158 is a relatively new Chapter of the worldwide EAA organization headquartered in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Although not a Chapter activity, members will be assisting in the Airfest on June 15-16. The arrival of the B-17 on May 25 - 27 will be coordinated by members of the Chapter and EAA Warbirds Squadron 6. New members are always welcome at the monthly meetings on the third Wednesday at 7:00 PM.






 

 

AEROMART! (again)
by Glen Brandt Group of Wisconsin Aeromart Chairman










Well, it's that time again, when we begin to look into the summer flying season and wish for the fly-ins we love so much. Lucky for us we have the grand daddy of all fly-ins just a hop and a skip up the road in Oshkosh. And even luckier (if that's a word), that we get in for FREE! Any day we want, every day if we want.

Hmmmmmmm, free you say? How'd we pull that off? Well I'll tell you: Aeromart.

First I need to tell you about it. Aeromart came to us quite unexpectedly three years ago when the chapter in Green Bay who was running it decided they had enough. We were approached by EAA to see what we could do to improve what was one of the first venues at the original fly-ins of the past; the swap tent. Here is where folks could bring new or used airplane stuff that they no longer wanted and sell them to others who could put those items to good use. It also became a great place for people to go and just look at airplane parts and wonder just what the heck it was they were looking at!

Well, we looked at this as an opportunity for our chapter to participate in the big one. It also gave our members an opportunity to volunteer at the show and benefit the chapter to which they belong as well. Here's where we have the upper hand; other volunteers at OSH only benefit the EAA, but OUR volunteers help the chapter to prosper.

So you want the facts, huh? Okay here goes………Just last year the chapter put almost $10,000 in the bank directly through our efforts at Aeromart. This money helps to support our incredible facility, our Air Camp for kids, our wonderful chapter events and cook outs, the Saturday morning breakfasts (which all of you need to attend just to watch Ron make biscuits and gravy), and the speakers we have.

Last year Aeromart saw 24,000 visitors walk through the tent, spending $171,000! WOW, that's a Very Big number. We wrote out something like 500 checks to 450 vendors who brought in stuff to sell. We sold 4 airplanes, one of them we sold twice, minus a nice set of wheel pants that the first buyer just had to have. We sold a helicopter! A jet engine! And lots of little Styrofoam airplanes. And it was a lot of fun. And every year there are volunteers from around the country, and from out of the country, who come to help just because they love to do it. Some have selfish interests like being the first to see the stuff as it comes in so they can snag it and buy it. I'm already getting notes in my email wondering if we want their help again. The answer is always yes.

So now I'd like to ask for your help too. As a chapter member you can get into Airventure for free if you work at Aeromart. Just a morning or an afternoon and take the rest of the day to see the show. Work a whole day and you can get a pass for another whole day to see the show. If you can't work during the week, that's ok, help set up the weekend before and come to the show the following weekend. Or help us take it all apart the last Sunday. Who knows, you might like it so much you'll skip the show and just hang around with us! If you hang around a WHOLE lot, I might let you drive the gator!? Now that's fun! I hope to see you all there.

 




















Member Profile
by Howard Kaney, Membership Chairman

Today we are visiting with Jim Dricken.

I earned my private pilot certificate in May of 1976 after getting "Hooked" by taking the controls on a scenic flight at West Bend Flying Service. About a year later a friend of mine, Alex Esselman, suggested we ride our Motorcycles to Oshkosh for the Fly-In. The spectacle at Oshkosh really set the hook and I have been an EAA member ever since.

The attraction of EAA at first was, of course, the airplanes of all shapes and sizes, but after a while it became more of a "people" attraction. The personal history of a featured builder in Sport Aviation was often as much or more interesting than the project itself.

Chapter 1158 has been a wonderful experience for me. I always wanted to join a Chapter, but never did, so when an organizational meeting was held at West Bend Air almost six years ago Sandy and I jumped right in as Charter members. Having our very own local Chapter has been a very rewarding experience. We have made many new friends and met a lot of interesting people. The facility projects have been very enjoyable because I like to "build things and fix stuff." Chapter socials have been a lot of fun and I would like to see every member participate.

For the future of our Chapter, I would like to see us develop an endowment fund. I would like to involve our community more as the airport expansion issue warms up in the near future. Our Chapter is in a good position to keep a positive light on aviation in our area for the good of Commerce, Young Eagles, Air Camp and our own "$100 hamburgers."

As I mentioned earlier I love to build things. In 1977 I built my own home. Before that there was a Drag Racing Harley that I competed with on the national circuit and many thousands of miles on street Harleys and some Hill Climb and motorcycle Ice Racing (and people think pilots are crazy!)

Since I was 17 years old I worked at the same place, first washing parts and learning the mechanic's trade and after 35 years it has been a fantastic ride both literally and figuratively. The Harley family is really a great bunch of enthusiasts. I have been blessed with two wonderful parents that always encouraged me to step a little higher and reach a little further and that nothing is impossible for those who will work for it. My wonderful wife, Sandy, is the light of my life and supports everything I do --- who could ask for more!

My favorite airplane is the Lancair 320/360 which I am building. Why the Lancair? It was love at first sight on the cover of Sport Aviation in 1984. It is also the only way to go as fast as Chris Good's RV-6A ---- The Arrow doesn't have a prayer!

Jim currently serves our Chapter as President and Board Member. Any questions about Chapter affairs, Harleys, and building and fixing things can be directed to Jim at 334-9515, jdricken@aosmail.com.

Up, Up & Away
by Randy Finco, Fly-Out Chairman

Glenn & Pam Brandt, Chris & Sue Good, Jeff & Carol Frye, Kurt & Tina,(friends of Brandts) and Randy & Allison Finco left at aprox. 8 a.m. Sat. March 16 for Meigs. As luck would have it, President Bush was arriving at Meigs as well for the St. Patricks Day parade in Chicago. So the airport closed from 10.30 am to 2.30 pm and the place was full of cops and Secret Service. We were ushered out very quickly. The group decided to tour the Museum of Science and Industry which was very interesting. Afterwards we took a taxi to "The Italian Village" where we all had just about the best Italian food ever. Great place, we'd recommend it to anyone. Back to Meigs and home to West Bend by 6 pm. I think everyone would agree it was a great trip.

The Fishless Friday Fish Fry Flyout was a great success on April 12 to Friar Tucks in Oshkosh.

Don & Jan Shane, Steve & Mary Roensch, Glenn & Pam Brandt, Jim & Dru Retzlaff, Gary & Jackie Barribeau, Chris & Sue Good, Randy & Allison Finco along with their 3 daughters; Amy, Kayla, & Lisa were those who flew.

The weather was touch and go for awhile- low ceilings and hazy, but the clouds broke just in time for a very nice, quick flight and meal.
(Contrary to what we were originally told, the Hilton's restaurant does not have a fish fry on Friday nights.)

To all you land lovers on most Sunday's we fly out to other airports in search of the perfect pancake, we encourage all of you to join us, in most cases there is always an empty seat, call me on Saturday 262-377-9676 or come up to the airport by 8:00.

Board Meeting Minutes

by Don Miller, Secretary

February 2002 Minutes

Present: Howard Kaney, Glen Brandt, Mark Hanrahan, Don Miller, Don Shane, Jim Dricken, Dan Staehler, Ron Champeny, Randy Finco, Gene Zorn.

* Minutes of previous meeting reviewed. Approved, motion by Mark Hanrahan. Seconded by Don Shane.

* Don Shane presented the treasurer's report, including checks issued and account balances. Motion to accept by Mark Hanrahan. Seconded by Don Miller.

* Howard Kaney noted that the budget being developed should be aligned with our fiscal year, not the calendar year.

* Howard also discussed the upcoming Boy Scout activity, noting that the focus will be on providing activities that will allow the scouts to work toward their Aviation Merit Badges.

* Jim Dricken suggested that in addition to Young Eagles and Flying Start, we should develop "Old Buzzard" activities. This would provide the adult community an opportunity to get an airplane ride, or just learn more about General Aviation, on an informal basis.

* Project Room Update: The back rooms are complete, except for 1 ceiling fan to be installed.

* Facilities Update: There is an auxiliary heater that needs to be installed in the main hangar. It has been learned that Mercury Vapor is not necessarily the best alternative for the main hangar lighting. Don Shane is investigation other high pressure gas solutions.

* Howard Kaney presented the membership update. There are as of 6 February, 40 paid and 36 unpaid memberships. It was also noted that the survey participation was disappointing.

* Our liability for paying Sales Tax was discussed. To help document this, we will be including 'activity days' as a working part of the minutes. One criteria that would eliminate tax liability is having fewer than 20 days of sales activity in a given calendar year.

* Glen volunteered to E-Mail the membership for donations toward the projection TV system.

* The need for a Member Handbook was discussed. It should be something simple, that relates the benefits of belonging to our chapter, as well as any "Do's and Don'ts".
* Motion to adjourn by Mark Hanrahan. Seconded by Glen Brandt.

Pilots Needed
In the next decade, 40,000 pilot's will turn 60 and face mandatory retirement.
And that doesn't include an increase in the number who will leave to become personal pilots for top executives and other wealthy travelers. In 1997, anticipating a shortage, a nonprofit program called Be a Pilot was created. It offers a $49 introductory flying lesson. If you're interested, visit www.beapilot.com or call 1-888-232-7456. West Bend Air, inc. is a particapating flight school in this program.
