GPA Meeting & Antique Aircraft Display
As always, our agenda is packed with important stuff. Experienced pilots know that a good meeting always starts with carbohydrates! So we'll supply plenty of free donuts and coffee! That should get the day started. If you have an aircraft for the Classic Aircraft Display, make sure it is parked on the East Transient Ramp prior to 0900. Paperwork will be ready after the meeting.
Let's talk about these other important things on the Agenda:
Price of aviation fuel...
The Miramar Airshow 2022 - featuring the Blue Angels in their new Super Hornets
Special Guest Anne Baldwin from County Airport Properties will be our guest speaker. She will be presenting the proposed enforcement structure for violations of Vehicle/Pedestrian Deviations (VPDs)
Getting (another) new Director of Airports...
Review of changes to SoCal Tracon IFR practice approach policy
Review change to IFR Long Cross-country "3-approach" rule
Review of PAR procedures at Miramar MCAS
Gone West Tribute to Brig Gen Bob Cardenas
And of course we will have our monthly raffle for 10-gallons of aviation fuel from Golden State Aviation (worth a fortune these days!) - AND - an hour of instruction in the Redbird Full Motion Simulator - compliments of your GPA president!
So make that hour between 0900-1000 count! Come to the GPA meeting and fill up with pastry, policy, and programming! See you there!
ABOUT GPA
GPA's general membership meetings are typically held the first Saturday of every month at 9:00 a.m. in the Gillespie Field Administration Building, 1960 Joe Crosson Drive, El Cajon, CA 92020. Refreshments are provided, and meetings usually last about an hour (though hangar talk can go on indefinitely afterwards).
Our general meetings are a good place for you to get to know your fellow Gillespie pilots and to find out what's going on at your airport.
