Flying Rotarians Get Together at Oshkosh...
By Mark Hagan.
A nice contingent of Flying Rotarians braved heavy rains to attend the combined Oshkosh Rotary noon meeting at the Airventure site on Wednesday, July 27, 2011. That evening additional Flying Rotarians joined them for a BBQ at Mark & Karen Hagen’s motorhome.
The program at the noon meeting was presented by Burt Rutan, one of the most gifted designers of aircraft in the world. He is famous for his design of the record-breaking Voyager, which was the first plane to fly around the world without stopping or refueling, and the sub-orbital spaceplane SpaceShipOne, which won the Ansari X-Prize in 2004 for becoming the first privately funded spacecraft to enter the realm of space twice within a two-week period. He has five aircraft on display in the National Air and Space Museum: SpaceShipOne, the Virgin Atlantic GlobalFlyer, Voyager, Quickie, and the VariEze. Pictured at the Oshkosh SW Rotary meeting is long time member Tim Freudenthal from Wautoma, WI and new member Ron Blilie from Kerrville, Texas. Ron is a retired NASA engineer. 
He was involved with the training of Apollo astronauts to land the Lunar Module on the moon.
