  AACIT Monthly Board of Directors Meetings

  The AACIT Board of Directors meets monthly to discuss AACIT business. The meeting dates vary, but are typically during the third week of the month. All AACIT members are welcome to attend. For more information contact the Board of Directors (aacit-board[at]caltech.edu).

  AACIT Wash Days

  
  
  One of the reasons our planes always look so spiffy is that our members help keep them clean. All members are welcome at our monthly "wash days." They are held the second saturday of each month from 9:00 am to 12:30 pm at the El Monte Airport wash pit. Every member who participates receives a work-day credit of one-hour's equivalent time in a C-152. The work-day credit may be carried over for one month, but you must show up by 9:00 am to receive the credit. Contact the Maintenance Supervisor for further information.
