Combined experience among our Chapter 83 members includes flying everything from light sport aircraft to military aircraft to airliners. We have members who have built their own planes, counseled others regarding mechanics and avionics, and assisted with test flights. We have members who enjoy local sightseeing and those who enjoy long cross countries. There are also those who prefer to keep their feet on the ground while watching cool airplanes. Our chapter has a place for anyone and everyone, regardless of level of interest or experience.​

We love getting together! Food is usually involved!🤤

Chapter 83 has been around since 1960!

Monthly meetings often include safety updates/presentations during the winter months. Several Chapter 83 officers attended a free ground school presentation provided by Hoosier Aviation. 

Staying knowledgable, proficient, and current are all part of being responsible aviators!
