| | The 2003 West Houston Squadron Open House and Fly-In was held May 17
& 18 at the West Houston Airport. Our second joint event with the Military Museum of Texas, it was
blessed with good weather and a good time was had by all (except
for one pilot). And a milestone event - the N3N made its first flights
in over a year! The new cylinder and piston worked like a champ.

Sunday
morning before the gates opened, a King Air came in a bit long and a bit
hot and ended up in Bear Creek at the end of the runway. No one was
hurt, but ... ouch.
