Text Box: News From The       Princeton Airport        Flying Tigers       Good news.  14 Tigers in 6 planes attended the fly-in to Easton’s Tidewater Inn on the 26th, hosted by Lou.  Dan Bellware & his 3 passengers were disappointed as he had a flat strut and couldn’t go.  Tidewater Inn offered us a very nice buffet and we all ate our share.  The flight down and back was very smooth.    We have changed some of our procedures, as we now have a host for each of the fly-ins, so different members get a chance to participate. February 16th:  Fly-in to Westchester County, NY (HPN) and it will be hosted by Tom O’Shea. Future Events:  We have information for a bus trip to the National Air & Space Museum in Washington DC.  The trip would include:  Round trip transportation by motorcoach, a stop for breakfast (on your own); a visit to the museum and dinner at Phillips Harborplace in Baltimore Harbor.  $64.00/person.  More info to come. Shirts, Jackets & Hats:  See Steve.  NOTE to Non Members:  If these events sound like fun, you bet it is.  Joining this prestigious group is a mere $25/year.  All you need to be is a student, and/or a pilot who flies from 39N.      Send your dues to:        PAFT c/o Princeton Airport        Route 206        Princeton, NJ 08540 Join Today!

Text Box: Private Pilot Ground School In session. If you are a private pilot and need a refresher , or if you are a student, you can join this class which meets Monday night at 7:00 p.m. We will prorate the cost.

Text Box: F.Y.I.: ·         Prepayments yield bonus only when there is no balance on your accounts. ·         Airplane owners—your discount of 7˘ a gallon is only valid when your account is current. ·         Unfortunately some operation manuals and /or pages have been removed from flight school equipment.  Push-To-Talk switches and microphones have been stolen.  If we find the culprit, we will ask you to leave.  You make it more costly for everyone. ·         If you refuel elsewhere, please turn in the receipt when you return. The maximum time we will allow is one week. (It creates chaos.) ·         Some time this spring, Jeppesen will no longer support the video system and switch to DVDs.  As such time that it happens, we will make a smooth transition.  (They will also be for sale.)

Text Box: Airplane Sales Check our website Www.princetonairport.com (click on Aircraft Sales.) Frequently airplanes never make it to the bulletin board, as they are purchased when posted on the web.
