Stag Air Park Looking West down runway 29
For last minute field conditions phone: Garry Brown at 910-619-2557
Is your airplane overweight from all the good stuff you have added since it was new? Do you want to know how much she weighs now? Well, you can get that information on April 10, 2010 when EAA Chapter 297 will hold its first aircraft weight clinic in their hangar at Stag Air Park.
A short briefing will begin at 10:00 a.m. followed by weighing of Chapter 297 member's airplanes using digital scales. The Chapter weighing team will assist the owner in putting the airplanes on the three scales, level the plane and record the three weights. Weight and balance calculations will be the responsibility of the aircraft owner.
This event is open only to EAA Chapter 297 members but non-members may join the Chapter the day of the weighing and have their plane weighed at this event. You must be a member of the parent EAA organization to be a member of Chapter 297, but if you are not we can offer you a 6 month free trial.
While weighing takes only a short while it might be good to make an appointment with the weighing team prior to the weighing day. You may call Garry Brown at 910-259-6501 to secure a weighing slot.
Note to Chapter 297 member builders: EAA Chapter 297's weighing team will weigh your project plane at your workshop when you are ready. The cost is lunch for the weighing team and transportation fuel cost from and to Stag.
