FAA 2010 Olympic TFR Fringe Airport Codes Notice
The 2010 Olympic Games TFR is now in effect in Northwest Washington State!
All pilots are requested to obtain a complete preflight briefing from FSS prior to operating in the
vicinity of the TFR.
Pilots should request the complete NOTAM information concerning the TFR and the airport specific
transponder codes from FSS, DUAT(S), AOPA or other approved flight planning service prior to flight near
the TFR.
Fringe airport transponder codes have been established for VFR operations at seven airports that are
located in or near the TFR. These airport specific transponder codes provide advance warning to ATC
monitoring the airspace of your intention to land or depart one of the fringe airports under VFR.
Compliance with the TFR and NOTAM is mandatory by all pilots.
Non-compliance by pilots could result in further airspace restrictions.
For further information on VFR operations

Chapter Meeting
Oh, no! Not the itchy, stinky, black art of fiberglass!
Why do aluminum pounders have such a fear of this very useful and easy chemical experiment?
Not sure, might be genetic. No matter, come to this month's
chapter meeting and chase those fears away, permanently. |

Hanger Event : Dinner & Movie!
It's COLD
outside, so bundle up and come on over to the Chapter Hanger
for some HOT
Chili and a Movie.

Homemade Chili (remember, some like it hot, some like it with cheese
and onions on top, and some like it with veggies only...)
and/or a side dish to match (unless it's a top secret recipe, we'd love a write-up of how your
masterpiece was created).
Movie: Battle of Britain
(After the fall of France during World War II,
Britain stood alone awaiting the arrival of German forces.
Against overwhelming odds, intrepid flyers of the RAF Fighter
Command held the skies against Hitler's Luftwaffe and won a battle
that changed the course of the war and history.)
Where: Chapter Hanger at Twin Oaks
Date: Saturday, February 20th
Time: Good eats start at 6:00 PM; Movie at 7:00 PM
Movie: Battle of Britain
Oh! Forgot to mention. Bring your own beverage and comfy chair.
