This is the issue where we showcase some of the clubs here in the Heart of America, whose members choose to brave the elements and fly on the first day of each year. Some of these events have a 30-year uninterrupted history—a tribute to our hardy AMA members.

This year, compared with the last few, was slightly more temperate but was still quite challenging. As always, you are invited to join us next year.
