As the front page news tells...David Seurer lost his battle with cancer. He was a great guy, always willing to help out his dad and the EAA chapter. We have the obituary for all to read. Please keep Ed and the rest of the family in your daily prayers as they continue to press on with the loss on their hearts.

Last month’s meeting was a big hit. Miriam counted over 100 folks in attendance. The building definitely needs to grow as has our membership. Thanks goes out to Bob Cabe who graciously arraigned for Dick Cole to speak. Also, a BIG thanks goes out to Dick who gave his time to come and speak with us.

The NEW chapter rosters are available for pick-up. They will be at the August meeting..

Ed’s Tri-Pacer is back in ONE piece! Well, not any longer. The engine gave up the ghost on the return trip from OSH. Though the great piloting skills of this humble scribe and Brad Doppelt, the plane (which was barely running) was safely landed at Boerne Stage Airport. They did get some oil on the windshield and the ground after shutdown. There was a BIG hole in one of the cylinder heads. Fourteen GPS away from home when the thing let go. Dang...

Bob Cabe’s RV is sporting a new panel with a lot of new toys. How about an update?

I’ve heard that there is another Zenair flying from 8T8. How about an update?

We have two new volunteers! Check it out in the Key Members listing.Remember this month is our last official Young Eagles rally. Be sure to drop by and participate! Brad promises a great turn out of kids for us to introduce the joy and freedom of flight!

October...what time is it? CHILI COOK-OFF TIME. Get your favorite recipe out, ‘cause there’s gonna be some heat in the kitchen! It’s EAA 35’s 1st Annual Chili Cook-Off and you are “expected” to bring your favorite chili for others to savor the flavor. More in next month’s electronic newsletter. Get outta of the way Skip, the “Chili Man” is coming through! ?

As you now know, Kris Niswonger is assuming the duties of NLE, Runway 35. Miriam and I both personally thank Kris for stepping up to the plate. It’s been almost a year now in the request department. We will continue to add our “two cents” worth and I’m sure all of you will help out by sending Kris your input to your newsletter!

Speaking of input. We have one from Don Staats and one from Ted Bender. Interesting reading to say the least...

There’s much, much more...please read on and enjoy your copy of Runway 35, the “Best Award Winning” Newsletter of ANY EAA Chapter!
