The above photo is Guy Raymond's beautiful biplane. And yes, it features electric start! Bests part: she flies just as good as she looks, and she's a gorgeous aircraft. Great job on this one, Guy!
The club held its last regular meeting for 2025 on Wednesday, October 8th at Slate Valley RC Racing in Fair Haven. Lots of ground was covered. You can review the minutes you received via email, or go to our Meeting Minutes page, click on the current year, and select the October 8th meeting link.
After some post-meeting discussions and shuffling around, we are happy to report that we have a full slate of club officers ready to serve the club in 2026. Thank you to all our past officers, and to our newest group who are willing to step up. You can see all their smiling faces on our club officer page!
The club paid tribute to former member and club VP Steve Messiter, who passed away suddenly in September. A Celebration of Life will be held in Pawlet on November 8th.
The club bylaws have been updated and a link has been updated on the club documents page on this site. Note there are simplified club membership rates that are part of this update. The rates go into effect immediately, and will be used for all 2026 club membership applications.
The club opted for more research into the possibility of incorporating the club as a non-profit. It would seem as the way to go to better protect club members from any future liability issues. AMA club insurance pretty much protects club officers from liability as a result of their roles in the club. It's the membership at large that we'd ultimately like to better protect.
The minutes for the October 8th meeting, along with bylaws updates have been posted on this site and are available for your review.
