ParticipantIs there any help needed at the Hanger for setting up any hardware to host the ZOOM portion of the 3-25-23 club safety meeting?
If so, is help required on Thurs or Friday beforehand?

ParticipantWell, it’s been a few hours since our Spring Safety Meeting has passed. What a great day and event. More details will be forthcoming but to sum it all up, there were 36 members in attendance with 28 in person, 8 on line and 2 guests. If you were not able to attend, the recorded presentation will be available shortly.
Everyone who did attend has received WINGS credit thanks to John Baker. If you did not receive credit (be sure to check your WINGS logbook) you either listed the incorrect email address or you do not have a WINGS account.
So, what to do if you do not have an account you ask?
- Go to https://www.faasafety.gov/
- Click on Create an Account. (Upper Right of page)
- Enter your email twice.
- Check yes or no if you have a current Airman Certificate.
- Complete the following page.
Once you have the account you should receive credit for the seminar provided you use the same email that you gave to SSI when you joined.
Any questions let me know.
Steve
