PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Carl Diefenbach
You may ask
yourself, "what are all these
Wingmaster's pilots doing at
McDonald's?" Well we all stopped by for
a McCafe and we were so impressed we had
our monthly membership meeting in their
upscale dining room. The turnout was
exceptional and I found the $.64 Senior
coffee just right for the occasion.
We were joined by Bob Peterson, a member
of the Board of Palomar Flyers. Bob was
interested to see what these "Wingmaster
fellows" are all about. Quite frankly,
Bob moved into our neighborhood, saw the
flying activity from his house and homed
in on our site to join the club.
Unfortunately, at the time for
unexplained reasons Bob did not receive
the traditional Wingmasters Welcome.
Flying since 1959, certainly Bob had the
experience we respect in our ranks but,
nonetheless, not one person said hello.
Naturally, he moved on to look for
friends elsewhere. Hearing this is
disturbing. I don't think this scenario
could play out today. Who among us is
so self-absorbed they cannot welcome a
newcomer to the field?
Bob has re-joined the club and I
personally welcomed him aboard at the
meeting. I ask all of you to reflect on
this and while this occurred years ago
let's be sure that any such perception
of our club is quickly erased and the
true Wingmasters camaraderie is enjoyed
by all.
Fly Safe, Always,
- Carl
