Darwin's Grand Champion RV-7
In 2021, Darwin Barrie flew his just completed RV-7 to Oshkosh, WI for the Summer EAA Air Venture event. This was not the first time he had brought a newly completed experimental aircraft to be judged by the experts at Air Venture. However, earning Grand Champion in 2021 would validate his skill and persistence as a builder.
Darwin is a member of chapter 1614 and has flown in our Young Eagle events almost every year. This month he will bring N717AZ to our meeting and talk about his experience building and flying his award winning RV-7.

Stories From Air Venture
Air Venture is Disneyland for pilots. Every pilot should plan to visit the world’s largest air show at least once in their lifetime.

This will be our last meeting until September.

Gary Zettl - Flying the F-111 in Desert Storm
Gary has been a photographer for most of Stellar Airpark's Young Eagle events. What most of you probably didn’t know is he flew F-111s in Desert Storm. He has agreed to share his experiences with combat operations as well as his perspective on leadership in a combat deployed squadron. Most lessons of flight safety highlight pilots need to assess all aspects of their flight from planning thru execution. In combat operations, different assessments often lead to conflicts between pilots as well as leadership in a complex environment.
Please join us for this lesson in aviation history and aviation camaraderie on Wednesday, 20 March.
