Thursday, May 30th at 6:30pm - May Member Meeting - following a short CFI safety segment, the Air Traffic Manager and an ATC supervisor from ARB Tower will join us for a pilot/controller forum in hangar P10. This was a great event last year and whether you're a seasoned CFI, a new student pilot, or anywhere in-between, this is a great chance to hear directly from the tower that we work so closely with on a day to day basis to ask questions and hear their perspective on how they manage air traffic around the airport and the traffic pattern. There will also be an opportunity to sign up for tours of ARB tower following the meeting too!

- April Member Meeting - Friday, April 26th at 6:30pm in the terminal basement.

We will have the opportunity to learn about everything from the capabilities and operations of the UofM survival flight network (both helicopters and jets) to the logistics of how these pilots plan and execute these off-field landing flights with very short notice and often in darkness to the logistics behind how these operations are dispatched and how pilots train for this type of flying.

- March Member Meeting - Friday, March 15th at 6:30pm in the terminal basement.

— Our very own Nigel Thompson will present on the topic of avionics in our aircraft covering everything from a fleet overview of capabilities to system architecture (how certain avionics units communicate with each other) to safety tips on keeping everything straight going between the large variety of avionics setups here at the flyers and tips on learning new avionics systems. Nigel is a wealth of knowledge on all things airplane and everyone will learn something in this meeting from people brand new to the club to seasoned members of our CFI crew.

We will have a short CFI focus segment followed by hearing about the best trips that members have taken in 2023 and how you can visit there too
