Members of the National Board,  

I am pleased to announce that Civil Air Patrol was recently selected by the National Business Aviation Association, to receive the Al Ueltschi Award for Humanitarian Leadership.  The prestigious award is presented annually in recognition of the spirit of service demonstrated by humanitarian leaders within the business aviation field.  CAP was selected for this honor because of the selfless hours that are devoted to SAR missions within the organization each and every year. The award will be presented at the NBAA awards luncheon in Orlando, Florida on 20 October, with Major General Courter and Lieutenant General Hopper accepting on behalf of CAP.  This award is a widely recognized honor, and I am truly proud of the accomplishments that our volunteers have made to deserve this recognition.    

Very Respectfully,
Don Rowland

The May 09 AE newsletter from National is attached. You should find it useful & interesting.

We also Have the AEM workshop in July in Dayton , being put on by National`s Susan Mallett. We would like to recruit teachers to join as AEMs, Perhaps they may wish to attend this workshop. They will get a chance to fly in the Fly A Teacher program.  

I  am affiliated with an aviation webring that gets some interesting aerospace info, websites, PowerPoints, movies, etc. It has literally hundreds of people in 3 different countries submitting some pretty good material. If you would like to receive these emails let me know. Some of you are already getting these.  

I would also like to hear from you about interesting projects, visits to Museums, practices, etc that you are doing in your squadrons, groups. I would like to share those among our AEO group. So feel free to contact me by email or phone at 859-282-1590 to discuss these or any other matter you consider important.  

Thanks
