March meeting: Saturday, April 19, 2008
Tour of the Missouri State Police hangar and their fleet of aircraft at Spirit of St. Louis Airport (SUS). Meet at the Spirit of St. Louis Main Terminal at 9:45 am. Someone from the State Police will meet us there and escort us to the hangar.
There will be a meeting following the tour, and we will have lunch together at a restaurant in the Chesterfield Valley after the meeting.
Items Under Consideration:
1) Space is the theme of this year’s Learning for Life Adventure Days (day camp) for children in grades K-6. The organizers have asked the Ninety-Nines to participate. Sally Siebe will have more information at the meeting on Saturday.
2) Our Installation luncheon is scheduled for Saturday, May 17, at 12:30 pm, in the banquet room at Oliver’s Restaurant at St. Louis Downtown Airport. We will order from the menu.
Waypoint: The second issue of Waypoint is on the North Central Section web
site in the Members Only section. To access the Waypoint go to
www.ncs99s.org and click on the Members Only box. In the access

he Waypoint is hiding under Publications and Forms. Air Marking: I have been very busy as work this year and have not had time
to plan and schedule the air marking at Greenville Airport. I know the folks
there really want to have it done and would welcome anyone who could take
over coordinating this project.

Our tour of the St. Louis County Police Hangar and aircraft was led by member Patrice Mullins, a 27 year veteran of the St. Louis County Police. She is currently a Senior Pilot and has amassed more than 6.000 hours flying helicopters. Her police work has yielded some very exciting experiences and we enjoyed hangar flying with her during and following the tour.
Our meeting was held in the conference room at Jet Corp where we were joined by Christine Malcomson-Young, a member of the San Gabriel Chapter and Lear Jet captain with FlexJet. She was sitting stand-by at the airport and seemed as thrilled to have something to do as we were to have her at our meeting.
The meeting was called to order at 11:35 am by Chairman Sally Siebe. The minutes were accepted as written. Martha Norman read the treasurers report, which was accepted, and gave an unofficial account of the money available in the Del Scharr Scholarship fund. We have had inquiries but no qualified candidates for the scholarship this year.
Libby Yunger and Martha Norman will audit the books in June.
The Installation Luncheon will be held on Saturday, May 17, 2008, at 12:30 pm at Oliver’s Restaurant in the main terminal at St. Louis Downtown Airport. Martha Norman will send formal invitations to all members. Since all current officers and directors have agreed to remain in office next year, no ballots will be sent to the membership. Chapter dues of $15 will be due in May. Libby Yunger will send a list of the names and addresses of the current chapter members to Martha and to membership chairman, Jean Murry.
Delia Greer, Jean Murry, and Jan Pocock are attending the North Central Section meeting in Osceola IA in April. Vivian Waters is attending the International Convention in Alaska.
The second issue of the Waypoint is available on the NC Section website. Hard copies should arrive by snail mail before the end of April.
Gussie Freese will attempt to get more information on the Learning for Life Space Camp scheduled for May 5-9. We will man a booth at the camp if feasible.
