Panel Ensures The Organization’s Continued Focus On Vital Programs Benefiting Current And Future Homebuilders
EAA’s Homebuilt Aircraft Council, which ensures the organization’s continued focus on vital programs benefiting current and future homebuilders, is looking for a few new volunteers. This council represents homebuilders and provides direction for programs, services, and activities that add value for members who are dreaming of, building, buying, and flying homebuilt aircraft.
Candidates for the council should be members who are actively engaged in building and flying homebuilt aircraft. The terms are three years, and the council meets two times per year in Oshkosh in addition to monthly teleconferences. Volunteers should plan for a commitment of up to five hours per month.
According to the EAA website, the Homebuilt Aircraft Council (HAC) promotes and preserves the privilege of EAA members to pursue the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of homebuilt aircraft. This requires two component efforts:
- Fostering understanding and preserving the integrity of the Majority Portion (“51%”) Rule as an essential and defining regulation that permits homebuilder activities.
- Promoting safe practices and methodologies in the design, construction, testing, operation, and maintenance of homebuilt aircraft.
The Council shall provide the collective expertise and experience necessary to analyze policies and issues, and serve in an advisory capacity to the EAA President, key staff members, and the Board of Directors.
If you are interested in this opportunity to help shape the future of homebuilding, complete the online application at the link provided below.
