MARCH 2015
EAA CHAPTER 377
EAA—Our mission: To grow participation
in aviation by sharing the spirit of aviation.
LAST MONTH
John J. Jenkinson III, President
The visit to the Mid America Air Museum was
great... and it was almost a perfect day to fly. Thanks
to Stan Reiss for coming up with the idea. There were
about 30 people, and 8-10 airplanes... and Harriet,
John, and everyone at the museum were very helpful
and hospitable.
I haven’t had the opportunity to fly much lately,
I’ve been very busy with work, and my travel schedule
(and weather) hasn’t allowed for any aviating. Jana’s
been busy with Kayla’s senior year activities, so it’s
all work and no play for the Jenkinson’s lately. The
hangars at Lakin (36K) should be finished in time for
the fly-in there... and this year, not only is there another
car show in conjunction with that event, but WW2 war
birds are coming from ICT to offer rides... should be a
great time.
We have a new member in Cimarron, and they
are interested in taking one of the open dates for a
morning breakfast “beat the heat” fly in... so Mary and
I will keep you posted.
That’s all I have... not much.... from the road.
John

curve (future story about this nice 59 Piper Comanche
180 I bought from Scot Sudmann later).
I know being a GA Pilot can be an expensive
endeavor. If I can do this, more people out there can,
too. And you don’t have to own an airplane to be a
pilot. I never set out to own one. It just happened.
And I jumped on it. Every time I land that airplane...
every time...it’s worth every penny.
As always, I would really like to hear what you, the
pilot community, has to say. Feel free to email or call
me with comments.

EAA Members Respond Big,
Fast to Pilot’s Bill of Rights 2
March 5, 2015 – The newly introduced Pilot’s Bill of
Rights 2 legislation certainly struck the right chord with
EAA members, as more than 12,000 letters have been
sent to congressional representatives as of Thursday
afternoon.
Support for the bipartisan legislation comes from
every state, with more than 1,300 letters from Texas
and 1,100 from Florida. EAA continues to urge its
members to use the Rally Congress website to contact
House and Senate members, and encourage them to
co-sponsor the measure or indicate support for it. EAA
appreciates the efforts of many members to recruit
other aviators to send messages to their congressional
representatives.
My name is David Watt. I live in Garden City,
KS. I passed my checkride and earned my Private
Pilot Certificate in August of 2013. I received my
flight instruction at Crotts in Dodge City, KS even
though during my training I lived in Liberal, KS. I
was fortunate enough to have an instructor that was
committed to making great pilots. He certainly made
sure that I was able to handle situations that I am sure
any pilot hopes they never have to deal with. My flight
training felt less like an enjoyable experience as it did

AirBike Cross-Country Flight
to Gage, Oklahoma
February 7,8, & 9, 2015
I built my AirBike to go places, expand my world,
visit friends, and just plain ‘ole have fun. I did all of that
mid-February by flying the 340 mile round-trip to Gage,
Oklahoma to visit other AirBikers. An unusual February
weather system in Kansas blessed us with three days
of low winds and warm temperatures.
In the early Saturday and Sunday evenings at
Gage, from 5:30 to 6:30 (sunset) we flew as a gaggle
of up to 9 airplanes! There were four AirBikes, one
Hyperlite, A Rans S-18 Stinger and for a short time, a
Cessna 172!
This is a brief description of my trip out and back:
I left my Haysville, Kansas hangar (Blue Sky Ranch
and Aerodrome now under new ownership) at noon
Saturday, re-fueled after 100 miles at Alva, Oklahoma,
then flew the balance of the distance to Gage arriving at
3:30. The return trip began at 11:30 Monday morning,
with re-fueling at Anthony, Kansas airport after 115
miles then flew the remaining distance home, arriving
at 4:00 in the afternoon.
When I left Haysville Saturday noon, the
temperature was 60 degrees, as the day wore on and I
flew south, the temperature rose. By the time I reached
Gage and landed, the temperature at ground level was
85 degrees. Being dressed for cold weather traveling,
I soon became overheated and started shedding some
clothing layers.
The trip home was just the reverse. It was 65
degrees at 11:30 when I left Gage on Monday morning,
climbed to 3000 feet AGL where the temperature was
again 60 degrees. The temperature was downhill from
there as I flew north. By the time I reached Haysville
I had reduced my altitude to 1000 feet AGL to stay in
warmer air but even there the temperature had dropped
to 55 degrees. Higher was colder. I was dressed
almost but not quite enough to ward off the chills. The
“biological stick shaker” was activating.
As all of you know, my AirBike ain’t no hangar
queen! For me, flying is a phenomenally satisfying and
confidence building activity. It is how I get my “high!”
As Paul Harvey, noted radio commentator used to
say: Wait until you hear the rest of the story!” Go to my
website: http://www.airbikeace.org/
I hope you enjoy the story and can “fly” with me by
reading it.

FROM BEN BRANDVIK—I had the privilege of taking a co-worker’s 11 year old daughter up for her first airplane
ride. Meadow didn’t say much while we flew, but she had big possum-eating grin on her face from take-off to
landing!

The COMMEMORATIVE AIR FORCE A-26 LADY
LIBERTY based at Enid is ready to receive her rebuilt
engine. Funds are still being sought to pay for the
project.
As a project, Ken & Dee Ann Hollrah have handcrafted displays out of the actual valves from the blown
engine and are offering them for sale through the Lady
Liberty Sponsor Group. (See Attached Photo)
The valves are mounted on bases made from
Garfield County walnut harvested by Ken in the 70s
from between Woodring and Vance. Each base is
individually cut, sanded, and finished by Dee Ann and
each display has a unique serial number.
A maximum of 36 displays will be available, but
only 12 have so far been constructed with the walnut
base (4 are already sold). Also available are loose
valves with an easel display stand in either black & red
(the aircraft colors) or dark woodtone. Those valves
are also serial numbered. Every valve comes with a
certificate of authenticity stating the origination and the
serial number assigned to the valve.
Donations requested are
$50 for the walnut base displays and $40 for the
valves on an easel.
Shipping is available for $7.99.
Orders can be made by phone at 580-548-6161
(Dee Ann Ediger) or by mail.
Payment is to be made to:
Lady Liberty Sponsor Group
1026 S. 66th Street Hangar 11
Enid, OK 73701
Please specify exhaust or intake valve, and also
walnut base, red/black stand, or dark woodtone stand
with your order. Quantities are limited.
100% of the funds go toward the engine rebuild
project for the A-26 Lady Liberty and are a tax
deductible donation to the Commemorative Air Force,
a 501(c)(3) organization.

New Interior in 1998-Red/Burgundy-Excellent Condition
Comments:
Aircraft started out as an AT-19 in ’43 then in ’46 converted back to V77 Reliant. The flight
manual is of the AT-19. The aircraft was in a museum for 10 years or more and the log
books were lost. In ’98 the aircraft was purchased out of the Museum and underwent
restoration until December 2000. The rebuild/refurb list is extensive-beautiful aircraft with
a lot of personality. There are not many of these left out here so get it before it’s gone.
