Congratulations to Oxford Flying Club members who earned new certificates during 2011!

Matt Baker, Kristi Dobbs and Illya Mowerman each earned their Private Pilot License, while Scott Oloff earned his Instrument Rating.

In addition, our Maintenance Officer Brian Proulx earned his Commercial Pilot License in January 2012.

Oxford Flying Club offers an atmosphere of safety and development where members can expand their flying skills and knowledge and earn new ratings.

Our membership ranges from Student Pilots through experienced Airline Transport Pilots with tens of thousands of hours. We all share the excitement and pride of every new member achievement.

Congratulations to our own Jay Sabot who won the very prestigious Bronze Lindy for his magnificent homebuilt Legacy N26XY. Anyone looking at this aircraft is impressed with the extreme high quality of workmanship and can tell it was a labor of love. Jay committed over seven years to creating this beautiful machine and involved many club members along the way. Not only does she look great, she flies like a dream and moves like a rocket.

Oxford Flying Club member Ed Chromczak was recently honored by the FAA with the Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award for his "Fifty Years of Dedicated Service in Aviation Safety". The award was presented to Ed (left) by Jim Adams of the Windsor Locks FAA FSDO before a crowd of family, friends and fellow pilots at a safety seminar held at Oxford Airport.

Ed has earned a reputation for going above and beyond, and always looking out for his students and other pilots. Stories of Ed's generosity abound, such as how he flew our Cessna to a repair station and convinced the mechanics to drop what they were doing to troubleshoot and repair a problem so a student could take his check ride the following day. Another time Ed personally pulled and cleaned the spark plugs so a student would have a smooth running engine for some solo work.

As an instructor with Oxford Flying Club, Ed volunteers as CFI for our Pinch Hitter's Course, Soft Field Landing Event, and Night Landing Currency Event.

Ed holds an impressive array of ratings including Single-Engine, Multi-Engine, Seaplane, Helicopter, Glider, and Instruments, and is a certified instructor as CFI, CFII, MEI and Glider-I.

Ed, congratulations on this very special award, and thank you for your countless contributions to the arena. It's a privilege to know you, have you in the club, and to have you as a friend.

We had perfect weather and a great turnout for our annual Safety Day. Thanks to all who participated and expecially to Jeff Tongue for his captivating discussion, and to everyone who made this event a success. The landing contest surely gave the tower a workout!
