Meeting using ZOOM video from your home!
We’ve not been able to meet together and restrictions still apply, limiting gatherings. Like me, many of you will have been on videoconferencing calls with colleagues, friends and families during the pandemic. These have proved very effective, and we have opted to apply the technology – much of which is very user-friendly and intuitive – to the EAA240 November Membership Meeting.
We’ve arranged the November Membership Meeting via Zoom where we see and hear each other from our computers. The service is free (with limits) and easy to use. Please plan on joining us at 7pm on Thursday evening, November 5th for this first virtual session.
If you don’t have the Zoom software on your device you can download it now here (free!), or click the zoom logo.
You don’t need to download it if you don’t wish to, it’s optional and the service will operate instead from your web browser via www.zoom.com, using this link: https://tinyurl.com/y5xwn7od

Whichever way you access Zoom, here is the EAA240 Membership November 5th Meeting login information:
Meeting ID: 959 9312 1161 Passcode: 8WhzPHOur agenda for the November Meeting will include updates on membership (we have new members!), our Chapter financials as we approach year-end, what’s happening in our hangar and more. We’re planning on just 40 minutes plus a Membership Q&A session, ending at 8pm.
We are an Experimental group (!), and the use of Zoom will indeed be experimental for us. We will gauge its value and appropriateness for our meetings going forward. Your feedback on the session will be helpful and welcomed. If successful, for our future virtual meetings we plan to have invited speakers. The technology actually opens up the opportunity to have aviation speakers from more national locations!
We’ll post a Meeting Summary at the Chapter web site after the meeting, including the topic updates.
So, make a date to join this session via Zoom. We’ll post some helpful zoom tips on the Chapter Web Site ahead of the meeting.
