March Presentation Steve Considine

National Weather Service

I was born and raised in Michigan and have had a

fascination with the weather ever since I was a kid. I

received my Bachelors Degree in Meteorology from

Central Michigan University and I received a Masters

Degree in Atmospheric Science from Saint Louis

University in St Louis, MO. I began my career as a

forecaster in the National Weather Service in 1998

at the Gaylord, MI office. In July 2001, I transferred

to the office in White Lake, MI and have been a fore-

caster there ever since. I have been head of the

aviation program at this office since 2002. Since that

time, I have given presentations about various avia-

tion weather hazards to many local pilot organiza-

tions and have participated in many workshops with

the FAAST Team.

Looking forward to seeing you in March.

Doug Conciatu was good enough to collect this

speaker information and send it along for publication.

February Presentation Flight to the Florida Keys Submitted by Bill Appleberry

Our speaker at the February meeting of EAA Chapter 13 was Brian Wezensky. Brian has been flying for about 5 years now and is working on his instrument rating. Last summer Brian was shopping for an airplane he could use to visit family and take to Florida from time to time to get away from winter. He now is the proud owner of a 1956 G model Bonanza (V-35G). His airplane has a rather unique history as it was formerly owned by Astronaut, David Brown. Brian shared some of the aircrafts history and his experiences in being a new aircraft owner. Brian found the Bonanza in Texas and was immediately in love with the airplane. In addition to its ownership history, it had been fea-tured in the “American Bonanza Society” magazine. The airplane came with a long list of airframe modifi-cations, which really surprised Brian. Among the list of modifications were, slopped windshield, hydraulic propeller (replacing an electrically controlled prop), wing tip fuel tanks, completely replaced (updated) instrument panel and avionics, S-Tec Autopilot and much more. Brian elected to buy the airplane and was checked out in it in Texas before bringing it back solo to Michigan. With about 300 hour total piloting

Flight to the Florida Keys (Cont)

time Brian had to accumulate 25 hours solo in the air-craft before he was allowed to carry passengers with him. As Brian worked through the airplanes weight and balance paper work he discovered one weight and moment for the empty wing tip tanks and another weight and moment for the full fuel condition of those tanks. This is not an unusual situation for more com-plex aircraft with multiple fuel tanks. This often re-quires monitoring of fuel burn as it affects the CG en-velope during flight. As Brian began accumulating time in the Bonanza he became used to an initial climb rate of around 800 feet per minute, a cylinder head temperature of 420 degrees f., and a fuel flow of 14 gallons of fuel per hour. The continental literature for the airplane said the fuel flow should be 19 gallons per hour during takeoff and initial climb. Brian located the mechanic who recently rebuilt the carburetor and called him up on the phone. Brian explained his prob-lem to the man and was expecting to be told to send in the carburetor for overhaul. Instead the fellow told Brian which screw to adjust and how to adjust it. Now Brian’s initial climb rate is 1300 to 1400 feet per min-ute, fuel flow is 19 gallons per hour, and cylinder head temperatures are 325 degrees f. In addition accelera-tion is much improved. Brian is now working on his instrument ticket. For that rating he needs 20 hours of cross country time under the hood. Towards that end he flew a long cross-country trip to Florida, North Carolina, and back to Michigan with TJ Johnson acting as a safety pilot. Leg one was KVLL, Troy, MI to KVNC, Venice FL. At Venice with fuel at $3,60 a Gal-lon they departed with 60 gallons on board. From Ven-ice they flew to KEYW, Key West. Fuel at Key West was $6.94 a gallon. Two days in Key West then on to 2IS, Airglades, FL where they took on fuel at $3.54 per gallon and topped the tanks. Arriving at KFFA, (First Flight Airport) Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, Dave and TJ spent the day taking in the history of the Wright Broth-ers and their experiments there. Since there is no fuel available at KFFA they flew from Kitty Hawk, to Dare County (KMQI) at Manteo, NC for fuel. They then re-turned home to Troy Airport. The stats for the trip are shown below.

Trip Totals

4 Nights 2308 nm

Flight to the Florida Keys (Cont) Brian has given us a view into what its like to be a first time airplane owner. He has also shown a little slice of life as a private pilot with a “license to learn”. Thank you Brian for sharing a little bit of what makes flying so fascinating. Additional detail follows.

Lessons Learned 1st Leg

90 Gallons of fuel is a nice feature

140 kts is a minimum for a cross country

Mountain waves are scary at night

Flying over IFR is possible while maintaining VFR

Flying @ 11,000’ is a lot different than 5,000’

Stop drinking liquids 2 hours before liftoff

No bugs to clean off when flying at 11,000’

The airport lights are often on a frequency other than the tower or CTAF

Let all the air out of your bicycle tires

Leg 1 KVLL to KVNC

1020 nm

160 to 240 kts ground speed

Normal Cruise is 140 kts

Non-Stop Direct is 6.8 hours

Flew over IFR conditions in Smoky Mountains

Felt those mountain waves

Started in daytime, Ended at night

Flew @ 11,000’ for the tailwind

Leg 2 KVNC to KEYW

263 nm

Normal Cruise (140 kts)

2.5 hours

KVNC $3.60/gal. Took off with 60 gal.

KEYW $6.94 / gal

ADIZ Air Defense Identification Zone

Leg 3 KEYW to 2IS

Cloudy Day

Stop for gas @ $3.54 / gal Topped Tanks

(90 gallons)

Flew at 6,000’

Leg 4 2IS to KFFA

704 nm and 5 hours

Flew @ 7,000’

Flight following is really a requirement

No IFR procedures or runway lighting

Sunset was at 5:30pm – Better hurry

Leg 5 KFFA to KMQI to KVLL

553nm 5 hours

130kts average ground speed

A little less than the 240kts on Leg 1

Flew between 8,000’ and 6,000’ most of the way

We got bored

Lessons Learned 2nd Leg

An E6B to figure out how fast your really going is quite

interesting

Don’t move your eyes to fast or you get vertigo

Flying in hot weather brings down your oil pressure

Having up to date databases is reassuring

Wear sunscreen when going up for the day

A hat, bug cleaner and oil are nice things to pack

Lessons Learned 3rd Leg

The Everglades don’t count as a land mass

Forest Fire Smoke can form a thick layer

16 gph on takeoff gives 350 deg. cylinder head temp.

It is wise to pack your tow bar

Lessons Learned 4th Leg

Never let your gas tank run dry before switching

My 10 gallon Aux tanks seem to be only 8.5 gallons

Gas gauges never give the same reading at the same

level twice

Glad I had flight following

Lessons Learned 5th Leg

IFR is easier than VFR for long cross countries

Don’t let your airplane veer towards the DC TFR

Landing with a 2 hour fuel reserve is reassuring

Don’t bother to clean the belly until your home

Tim Lubbers’ RV-9A Project Ed note: Each month we ask members to forward a photo of themselves and their project for publication in the Dope Sheet. This month Tim Lubbers sent along a few photos and a brief write up. Thanks Tim.

Tom, apologies for the delay, I've been traveling lot. Attached are several empennage pictures. I purchased the empennage from a gentleman in Canada who purchased it years ago, but never started it. I've been working on it for over a year.

The pictures included are of various parts of the project that are completed and hanging in my

b a s e -ment or garage to be out of t h e way. I did bring c o m -pressed air into

my unfinished basement so that I can work on the project in a conditioned space. My tool kit came from Cleveland Aircraft tools and was a starter RV-9 tool kit. So far I've constructed the entire pro-ject using one small tungsten bucking bar. I did purchase a DRDT-2 dimpling tool that allows me to dimple at all hours with minimal noise. I haven't de-termined yet if I can con-struct the wings in the basement or if I will have to install a heater in the garage. But, I expect to figure that out soon. The wings will be ordered shortly and I expect that they will take me 1 1/2 to 2 years. (See Photo Page 12)

Gerry Bryce ‘Journey’ Follow-up Information

Last month we featured an article from Gerry Bryce about his ‘Journey in Aviation’. Since then Jerry has forwarded some additional information. Following is his letter and photos. Tom, Since I touch on my Navy years in that article I sent you for the Dope Sheet, I thought you might like some images that go along with that. I was in VR-52 at Selfridge. All VR squadrons in the Navy in the 80's were Reserve squadrons, much like total force throughout the military today. We were the Navy's embedded Heavy lifters (outside of the Air Forces Military Airlift Command) and flew

Navy and Marine Corps people and stuff to Naval Air Stations around the world. The VR-52 tail marking was "JT" (Jive Turkeys, the unofficial designation). We had four Detachments; Detroit (Selfridge), Chicago, Atlanta and Pitts-burgh. Northwest was not yet hubbed at Metro in that day and when DoD started to reconcile

(close) Naval Air Facilities in the post-Vietnam era Detroit was closed first because we always strug-gled to keep pilots. I had my six years in at the time and because of civilian career demands took my second discharge, the first from the Army. Thought you might like to have this. GB

February is African-American History Month

Ed’s Note: Early each year we get a polite re-minder that February and March are Women’s history month and African-American history month. The nudge comes from Chapter member Relly White, who likes to keep track of these things. In keeping with her request, we try to limit the articles to persons who were actively involved in aviation. Being a history buff, we usually aim for a person or person from long ago. But this time we decided to look into the NASA files. What we found were sixteen African-American astronauts, both men and women. Thus we have selected to give a little background on three of them. Here they are:

The first African-American in space was Philadelphia na-tive and United States Air Force Colonel, Guion “Guy” Bluford, Jr. Bluford received his bachelor of science degree in aerospace engineering from the Pennsylvania State University in 1964, a master of sci-

ence degree with distinction in aerospace engi-neering from the Air Force Institute of Technology in 1974, and a Ph.D. in aerospace engineering with a minor in laser physics from the Air Force Institute of Technology in 1978. Dr. Bluford also earned a master of business administration from the University of Houston, Clear Lake in 1987. As a member of the United States Air Force, Bluford earned his pilot wings in 1966. He became a NASA astronaut in 1979 and completed four space flights (STS-8, STS 61-A, STS-39, and STS-53) as a mission specialist, logging over 688 hours in space according to his NASA biography.

Mae Jemison became the first African-American woman to fly in space. Jemison earned a bachelor of science degree in chemical engineering (and fulfilled the requirements for a B.A. in African and Afro-American Studies) from Stanford University in 1977, and a doctorate de-

from Cornell University in 1981. Dr. Jemison has experience in both engineering and medical re-search. She completed her internship at Los Angeles County/USC Medical Center in 1982 and worked as a Gen-eral Practitioner with INA/Ross Loos Medical Group in Los Angeles. Dr. Jemison was se-lected into the astro-naut program in 1987 and was the mission specialist on STS-47 where she logged over 190 hours in space.

Bernard A. Harris, Jr. was the first African-American to walk in space. This Temple, Texas, native earned a bachelor of science degree in biol-

ogy from the Uni-versity of Houston in 1978 and a doctorate in medi-cine from Texas Tech University School of Medi-cine in 1982. Dr. Harris completed a residency in internal medicine at the Mayo Clinic in 1985 and trained as a flight surgeon at the Aerospace School of Medi-

cine, Brooks Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas in 1988. Dr. Harris also earned a master’s degree in biomedical science from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston in 1996, according to his NASA biography. Dr. Harris was selected by NASA for the astronaut class of 1990 and flew as a mission specialist on STS-55 and was the Pay-load Commander on STS-63.

A great deal more information on all aspects of the NASA space program are, of course, available on the internet, as you can well imagine.

Good reading. Ed

March, Women in History Month

BARONESS de LAROCHE 1886-1919

(Elise Raymonde Deroche)

Internet Article by by Dave Lam

The first woman to win her fixed wing pilot's li-cense was the self-styled Baroness de la Roche (real name Elise Ray-monde Deroche). She is described in contempo-rary reports as a "young and pretty" comedienne (which probably means she was an actress, in the jargon of the time, though she is also de-scribed as a "lyrical art-ist", or singer).

Previously a balloonist, She won license # 36 of the International Aeronautics Federation (F.A.I.) on 8 March 1910, at the age of 24. She participated in the aviation meetings at Heliopolis, Budapest, Rouen, and Saint Petersburg (at the latter of which the Tsar himself praised her for her bravery and audacity).

On 8 July 1910 she competed for the Women's prize at Reims in a Voisin biplane, and suffered a crash from altitude. After nearly dying following this crash, she regained her health and interest in fly-ing, and returned to the air. Soon thereafter, she set new women's records, including distance (323 km) and altitude (4500 m). She was a temporary holder of the Coupe Femina in 1913, with a flight on 25 November of 323 km, ending only through mechanical trouble. World War I put an end to her career only t e m p o r a r i l y . Soon after the end of the war, she returned again to the air, and in 1919 at Crotoy (flying a Caudron), she suffered an-other crash, this time a fatal one.

FLYING IN THE PRESENCE OF THE CZAR by Baroness de Laroche from Colliers Mag.

30 September 1911 Transcribed by Dave Lam, 1-9-04

After practicing at Moumelon, and breaking my arm in a fall, I went to Helipolis, where I obtained my pilot's certificate. I had hardly recovered from my accident, but I felt no apprehension on mounting my machine once more. What can I tell you of this first meeting, except that as soon as we took the air we were all seized by treacherous currents which flopped us about at the wind's pleasure, although the atmosphere seemed perfectly calm. From there I went to Saint Petersburg.

The aviation ground was small. None of us was will-ing to fly, and yet we all decided to do so. On the occasion of one of my flights I mounted to a height of 150 meters, being enveloped by the smoke from the factory chimneys which surrounded the ground. I flew over houses, then above forests, and turned three times. In order to reach the ground at the end of the fourth turn I made a little curve, tacked, and stopped my motor at a height of 100 meters. It was my first Volplane, so I was somewhat excited. To my great astonishment nothing broke. The Czar, who was present at this meeting, wished to con-gratulate me. He asked what my feelings had been, and I was able to assure him that his presence in the first place, and the houses and the landing ground, which was only 30 meters wide, in the sec-ond, had brought my heart into my mouth. Then I set out for Budapest, where I successfully achieved a flight of 37 minutes. There again the fac-tory chimneys, which served as pylons, so to speak, caused very disagreeable currents with their smoke. It was that flight which has left me with one of my most striking impressions. Nevertheless, in my opinion, the record for currents was broken at Rouen. There, being caught in a kind of tempest when I was in the air, I had to lower my equilabrator immediately and came to earth by the barriers that surrounded the aerodrome, where my biplane stood on end. If I had stopped my motor I should without doubt have fallen on the crowd. Happily, I had a little presence of mind left.

. Bill Appleberry reports that all is good with our audio system. He will set up directions to configure the wireless microphone. with a pre-senter’s equipment.

. Pete Dugdale reports that he has to flip up the picnic tables to protect the tops from the weather. Bob Mahieu suggested that we change over the tops to synthetic wood to elimi-nate constant seasonal maintenance.

. Tom Vukonich reports that the newsletter is going along just fine. Pete Dugdale said that he and Mark Fullmer would be reporting on their trip to the Michigan Air Conference in the near future. We would still like to publish a photo and some background information on new members. This is so that other members can connect a name with a face. If you are a new member, see Tom Vukonich our Newsletter Edi-tor, for a photo. Dick Green says there will also be some changes to the website soon, be sure you take a look.

. In the Other category we had a discussion on changing the board meeting date for March only. We have decided to change the date to Monday, March 6, 2017. This is not a perma-nent change, it only temporary for this March. If you require a name badge for the Chapter (which is also great for Oshkosh), you can see Rex. For $8.00 you will receive a professionally engraved, good looking, well made identification badge to wear to Chapter meetings, events and to large venues such as Sun and Fun or Osh-kosh. Pete Dugdale remarked that 57-D Ray Airport is growing. You will soon see two new large hangars being constructed at the South East corner of the Airport. To quote” Looney Tunes”, “That’s All Folks.” The meeting was ad-journed at 8:55 p.m.

We’re Looking for a Few Good

Chapter #13 Aircraft Builders

Early in 2016 we began posting the status of air-craft projects by Chapter #13 members. The postings included, at a minimum, a photograph of the builder and his/her project on the back page of the Dope Sheet. This month’s listing is the eleventh in the series. Furthermore, the back page photo doesn’t have to be all that we publish. If you are so inclined, you can put to-gether an article about the project with addi-

tional pictures.

Many years ago the Newsletter often carried in-formation about projects underway or com-pleted. We are off to a good start here renewing that old practice, and would like to carry it fur-ther. But, we need your help. Please let us

know what you are up to.

You are putting a lot of effort into your project. Don’t hide it under your hat. If you can’t show it off here, then where? Let’s show National

EAA what we’re up to.

Thanks.
