Our
Charter
In general, our goal is to get together, have fun, share information and fly
with Navion owners and those who genuinely love Navions.
We accomplish this primarily through regularly scheduled SNAG
"Fly-Ins" throughout the year, and publishing a monthly SNAG
Newsletter. The fly-ins routinely consist of a Friday evening (casual) social.
Saturday's (weather permitting) begin with the traditional "Dawn
Patrol" of Navions and flying events such as spot landing competitions,
balloon busting and flour bombing.
Sometimes, there are maintenance seminars or a general safety briefing dealing
with a specific "this happened to me". There are always plenty of
Navions for folks to observe several upgrades, various paint schemes, nose art
or just admire an original North American Navion design.
Our fly-ins are scheduled at locations which provide extracurricular activities
for those (often spouses, but sometimes we all go) who want to take in the local
sites.
Saturday evening usually boasts a casual dinner/awards ceremony (accompanied by
tall tales, Navion experiences,planned upgrades and of course - braggers
rights). Most attendees plan to be wheels in the well on Sunday by noon.
If you are not a member, and you would like to learn more about Navions, perhaps
you are considering purchasing one but you're not quite convinced, you are
encouraged to attend one of our flyins. Our members will make you feel welcome,
probably give you a ride, and answer any questions you may have concerning the
Navion.
