We're Insured

President Marty Bevill has received a copy of the insurance policy from EAA headquarters covering our chapter for events and activities we promote.

A copy of the policy can be viewed on the ERRATTA page of the chapter website, http://eaa-922.celinaux.com

Several small corrections have been made to the website. Dick Heiby has his profile completed and an updated picture posted. Dick Murray and Walt Vogel have their member links complete and are posted. The ERRATTA page has had links updated and rearranged.

Please send a picture of your aircraft or one you love along with some BIO info to murray45822@gmail.com and it will make its way to the website.

One Week On Display

It has been one week since the web site was put up and a lot of changes in its appearance has taken place in this period. Most noticeably was the use of frames instead of tables to lay out the design of the pages. The color scheme has also changed many times seeking to find the combination that 'works'.

The site continues to be written only with notepad to permit its update by any member with the simplest of computers. A simple text editor the genre of notepad is readily available with all operating systems and thereby insures successive updating can be accomplished at no cost. HTML was initially chosen as the form for our pages and that has evolved to the HTML 4.0 and XHTML standards to insure compatibility with the latest of browsers.

Several members have supplied biographical information and pictures for use on their respective pages. It is anticipated all members will have their pages updated and published within the month.

You suggestions are welcomed. Our goal is to keep it simple and keep it updated. If you have a particular site to include on the ERRATTA page, send it and we will publish it.

922 Web Page

The beginning of our chapter web page is located at eaa-922.celinaux.com for the present time (its free). Your comments, direction, and help evolving and maintaining this page will be appreciated.

When Sean updates the AXV site he can link to us where we have it hosted.

I have used a supplied editor to post the initial page, which I anticipate replacing with a simpler style employing html to facilitate upgrading by anyone.

The home page should contain our 'mission statement', meeting information, and links to our minutes, members, and chapter eratta. (KISS - keep it simple silly)
