HSW members will pay $5.00 and the wing will make up the difference.
Safety Officer Paul Cooper will be conducting required safety training and hangar introduction courses for all cadets, new members, and any members who have not yet been through the training. This is a requirement instituted by the Wing Staff to insure that all members are familiar with hangar safety procedures, and so that we are all qualified to escort and supervise any guests in our facility. December 1st is our annual Toys for Tots Drive (and Chile Cook-Off) and we expect a lot of guests in our hangar. This training will help to provide both members and guests a safe environment, and it will also protect the valuable assets of the Wing, and member-owned property, stored in our hangar.
Sessions will be conducted on two consecutive Saturday’s in November, the 10th and the 17th, beginning at 10:00 a.m. in the Commemorative Center Hangar. You are only required to attend one of the sessions. (Please note the time change from the original 9:30 am to 10:00 am)
Strahan’s Damage
To: High Staff, Wing Members & Headquarters Staff
From: Steve Clinton – Maintenance Officer
Subject: Damage to Member Owned Aircraft
Sometime between 7:45 P.M. Tuesday, October 30th, and noon, Wednesday, October 31st, Sam Strahan’s SNJ had considerable body damage done (see inset photo). I want to remind all High Sky Wing members and headquarters’ staff, that all aircraft whether member owned or wing assigned should not be moved or climbed on, without prior consent of owner or qualified wing member. Any guest in our hangar must be supervised at all times.
I think, at times we forget that these aircraft and ground vehicles are precious resources of this wing and should be treated with the care they certainly deserve. I know accidents can and do happen, I must ask that if any damage to aircraft, vehicles or hangar occurs please report incident immediately to myself or any available wing staff member.

HSW Maintenance Officer
