Jim Beeghly, Rick Treiber, Randy Stannard, Andy Orszula, 
Tim Scheer,​Karo Stigler, and Chris Lenz.

MINUTES OF THE FEBRUARY 24, 2021, BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING

2/24/2021

 
The meeting was called to order by President Rick Treiber at 6:33 p.m. via Zoom.

OTHER BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT:  Randy Stannard, Dean Beranek, Mike Mango, and Jim Beeghly

MEMBERS PRESENT: Richard Couch, Steve Pradarelli, Meindert Niemeier, and Tim Scheer

GUEST PRESENT:  Joe Hickey, prospective new member

The minutes of last week's meeting were unavailable, so Randy moved with second by Dean that they be deferred to next week. Vote taken; Motion carried.

OLD  BUSINESS:
1.    Treasurer's Report:  We are unchanged from last week.  There were a couple of payments, so we are okay for now.  We will have bills coming for the Arrow annual but hopefully they will be offset by Indian Hills' usage.

2.    Dean and Mike reported on airplanes.  The Arrow is back and Chris took 84455 down for its annual, so we have 7717U and the Arrow flying.  There was some discussion about the airport condition; we should be able to open back up soon if the snow piles go down some.  Also, the grass areas are quite soft.

3.    The phone idea seems to be working.  We are getting calls from interested parties.  Another one came to Jim who wants to become an Ag pilot.

NEW BUSINESS:

1.    Meindert gave a presentation on the status of the simulator.  He has added glass displays to the panel and worked on a number of details.  Very impressive.  He has put a ton of work on it  which should be extremely useful to the club.  We will owe him many thanks.
​

Randy moved with second by Dean that we adjourn.  Vote taken; motion carried.  Meeting adjourned at 7:11 p.m.

MINUTES OF THE FEBRUARY 17, 2021, BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING

GUEST:  Randy Coleman (retired law enforcement) and interested in joining the club

The minutes of the February 10, 2021 Board of Directors meeting were read by Karo.  Dean moved with second by Chris that the Minutes be approved as amended.  Vote taken; Motion carried.

TREASURER’S REPORT:  Randy said the bills (including insurance) are current; not much is coming in, but we're in good shape ... until we start getting bills for the annuals on the Arrow and 4455.

AIRPLANES:  Dean said the planes are there but can't really get to them due to high snow drifts.

OLD BUSINESS:
Dean will push some more snow tomorrow.

NEW BUSINESS:
Chris introduced his new baby to us; he's a cutie.

Brian said Tom Snell called and has a group of pilots who are coming into the area.  They're working on a test pilot's master's degree, or something like that, and need to create some sort of flight or flight test regimen.  He would like to have Green Castle be one of the stops they will need to make as part of the flight plan.  It would be some time in March but will find out the exact date(s) and what type of helicopter(s) they'll be flying.
​

Karo moved with second by Randy and Jim that we adjourn.  Vote taken; Motion carried.  Adjourned 6:48 p.m.

MINUTES OF THE FEBRUARY 10, 2021, BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING

2/10/2021

 

The meeting was called to order by President Rick Treiber at 6:30 p.m. via Zoom.

OTHER BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT:  Randy Stannard, Dean Beranek, Jim Beeghly, Mike Mango, and Karo Stigler

MEMBERS PRESENT:  Brett Lenz, Mark and Tracy Pettinger, David Ekman, and Richard Couch

The minutes of the February 3, 2021 Board of Directors meeting were read by Karo.  Randy moved with second by Dean that the Minutes be approved as read.  Vote taken; Motion carried.

TREASURER’S REPORT:  Randy said we have money in the bank; annuals are coming up on a couple of planes; bills are current.

AIRPLANES:  Dean said the Ercoupe is put back together but he hasn't had a chance to check the brakes yet.  Mike Burns will check the idle on it.  The Arrow is at Bloomfield for its annual; then Indian Hills will be using it.  The AD applies to our Arrow's wing. We'll get that current.

OLD BUSINESS:

The airport is still closed and we don't see any possibility that we'll be reopening the airport any time soon as the drifts are way too high.  Thank you Mark and Tracy Pettinger for all the plowing you two have been doing at the airport.
​

NEW BUSINESS:
None

MINUTES OF THE FEBRUARY 3, 2021, BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING

2/3/2021

 

The meeting was called to order by President Rick Treiber at 6:30 p.m. via Zoom.

OTHER BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT:  Randy Stannard, Dean Beranek, Jim Beeghly, Mike Mango, and Karo Stigler
MEMBERS PRESENT:  Gary Lust, Josh Tinkham, Meindert Niemeijer, and Brett Lenz

The minutes of the January 27, 2021 Board of Directors meeting were read by Karo.  Randy moved with second by Jim that the Minutes be approved as amended.  Vote taken; Motion carried.

OLD BUSINESS:

1.    TREASURER’S REPORT:  Randy said we have money in the bank; annuals are coming up on a couple of planes

2.    AIRPLANES:  Ercoupe and Chief are still being worked on; all other planes are available and ready to fly.

NEW BUSINESS:

Mike said both plow trucks are working great; having two people plow at the same time is "handy."  The license plate on the blue truck is now current.  We don't have insurance on the plow truck; therefore it must not be driven off of the property; no street, road, or highway driving.
Randy moved with second by Karo and Jim that we adjourn.  Vote taken; Motion carried.  Adjourned 6:47 p.m.
