Mark February 28th On Your Calendars
The United States
Ultralight Association will hold its 2004 Annual Member Meeting
February 28, 2004, in Springfield, Illinois, at the Illinois State
Fairgrounds. The mid-winter event will be held in conjunction with
the 24th Annual Illinois Ultralight Advisory Council (IUAC)
Ultralight/Lightplane Safety Seminar. Between the USUA business
meetings that are also being held during the weekend, the USUA
Board of Directors, Staff and Regional Representatives will be on
hand to greet members and prospective members.
The Meeting and Seminar will be held in the 400-seat Illinois
Building & Auditorium on the Illinois State Fairgrounds.
Registration for both events will begin at 8:00AM at the
fairgrounds. Following the Annual Member Meeting, the day will
conclude with the presentation of the USUA Ultralight Awards
Ceremony. This year's Moody Award -- named for John Moody, who many
consider to be the father of American ultralighting -- will be
presented to Jack McCornack.
USUA will be holding a
BFI Clinic / AFI Seminar on Sunday February 29, 2004, the day
following the Annual Meeting and Safety Seminar. Jim Sweeney (USUA
AFI #10798) will cover various topics, including training
techniques, program administration and Sport Pilot conversion. The
AFI test will be administered at the conclusion of the AFI
Seminar.
Registration begins at 8:00 AM, with the BFI Clinic starting at
8:15 AM and ending at 12:30 PM. The AFI Seminar continues at 12:45
PM and ends around 5:30 PM. All AFI Seminar attendees must attend
the BFI Clinic, which costs $35.00.
See you there!
