The Southwest section produces an excellent manual for chapter chairmen and members that answers your burning section questions:

• I need to contact a Southwest Section Committee Chairman?
• I need to know when a report or application for award is due?
• I need a blank report form or application form?
• How does 501(c)(3) tax status relate to Ninety-Nines?
• I need an aviation "resource" list?
• I want to learn more about 99s publications and scholarships?

All this information is in the newly revised Chapter Chairman's Manual which may actually be a misnomer. Every member will be pleased to have this wealth of information and you will refer to it often, as many of us already have learned.

Send your payable to "Southwest Section 99s" to Diane Pirman, 570 Raymond Avenue, Santa Maria, CA 93455. Your manual will be sent Priority Mail. This may well be the best aviation-related bargain you'll ever find
