NEWS UPDATE
Blame Shifts to TSA
in Pilot's Gun Mishap

MEMBERS
We have been overwhelmed with new Captain's Club membership applications and password and document requests as a result of our recent burst email. We expect to be caught up by July 1st. All new Club memberships will be extended an additional year as an apology. Thank you for your patience and understanding -- we're pedaling as fast as we can! -- David Mackett
