GAdams is on a distinguished road
Maybe we can start to bond our group with something a little less grand than a meet up in the middle of the country. Here in South Florida there is a club called the Old Farts Flying Club. Each week the leader picks a spot to meet for lunch, sets it up with a food vendor, on field or off field restaurant and makes the announcement by email. These every Thursday events get plenty of airplanes I think the record is 155. You fly in, pay for lunch and fly home. Simple. Easy and logistically not very challenging. All types of aircraft show up. No hotels no rental cars and you are not too far from home with plenty of expertise surrounding you if your airplane breaks. Maybe we could do this regionally instead of Nationally. Northeast, Mid Atlantic, The Carolinas, Florida, Ohio Valley etc and we could make it Skymasters only if you like. The next day the leader always sends out pictures and a recap and picks his favorite airplane which sure does bestow bragging rights upon people when I go to a meeting of the Florida Aero Club. Just a thought. Perhaps a way to bond our common interests.
