7) BREAK!

Time for our mid-meeting break!

Get yourself a snack and a drink; we’ll resume proceedings in a moment, including our usual raffle. And, we’ll briefly update our membership on the latest club business!

Programming continues in about 15 minutes with a presentation/gallery on air shows and aviation museums. The aviation industry has developed, over the years, many technologically advanced experimental and production aircraft, akin to the imagined airplanes and spacecraft of the future so prevalent in early science fiction. Thus are many SF fans also fans of aviation!

This afternoon’s e-meeting is a continuing experiment. If the local technology is performing properly and all has gone well, you are viewing a live-stream of this MonSFFA meeting, now underway. Those joining us online may follow along, and participate, by way of our ZOOM-chat.

Are you able to clearly see and hear today’s meeting? We are testing our technical set-ups to ascertain which delivers the best results for our online participants. Please take a moment to leave a comment as to how well this live-stream/ZOOM-chat is working from your perspective. It is our aim to live-stream future club meetings, thereby creating hybrid events in which participation may take place both in-person and virtually.
