In the October meeting we will continue to Discuss and possibly Plan a "Road Trip" up to The Southeast corner of Kansas to see "Big Brutus" the Steam Shovel.

The planned side trip to the Car Museum and Resturant in Baxter Springs is on hold because those venues are unfortunatley not open currently and we will be discussing alternative stops on that Brutus trip.

The Guthrie Regional Airport held it's 9th Annual Community Day Fly-in on Sepember 18.

We hope to have pictures and stories about the WWII A-26 Invader (did it Fly?) and various other beautiful Aircraft.

The car is in storage in Bentonville, Arkansas Ever Misplace Your Key Fob? - It might be right under your Nose One of our New Corvette owners took his car in for its First Oil Change. He picked up the car at the Dealer and drove off he failed to notice that his Key Fob was not in it's usual spot - In the Cup Holder. When he tried to lock the car, the car would not stay locked and "Beeped" twice to let him know the car wasn't locked. The next day the frustrated owner returned to the dealer (some 50 miles from his house) to ask the service writer where his keys were. The service writer claimed he didn't know but come to find out the "mechanic" who did the oil change, placed the Key Fob in the Key Fob Holder in the steering column that the Vette owner didn't know existed. Did you Know? Here is where the Key Fob was found. Go here for everything you wanted to know about the operation of your new 2017 Corvette (But were afraid to ask).
