Chapter Meetings

Chapter meetings are generally held at 7:30 pm on the second Wednesday of every month. The location has been permanently established as being in the Conference Room at Henderson Executive Airport. Dinner is usually at 6:00 pm in the Landings Restaurant upstairs, for anyone who wishes to join us. Feel free to contact Roger Hansen (702-966-7640) for more information, if necessary.

Alternative Breakfast Locations?

Member Fred Wilson has suggested that we occasionally fly out to other locations for our Saturday breakfasts, instead of the usual Landings restaurant at HND. Fred's suggestions include Shoshone, Furnace Creek, Kingman, Kidwell, Jean, Temple Bar, and Seligman, AZ. Are there any takers out there? How about any other suggestions for places to fly for breakfast? Please feel free to send you comments to Roger (roger@hansencc.net) or Fred (fpwillson@aol.com).
