receive the most votes.
We need your help! Please ask your friends to cast their vote
for EAA Chapter 44.

column) and fill in the information requested at the bottom of the
page. Click on "Place Your Vote" and you're done. Only one vote per

(7G0) on the outskirts of Brockport, NY. The SAC is our base
of operation for our many programs that benefit pilots, non-pilots,
general aviation, aviation safety, adults & kids.
