Gentlemen and Gentlewomen,

Regarding the location of a fly-in. This is the same "do it near me so I don't have to go very far" stuff that everyone was spouting last year. Then, finally Bob, Ernie, and Larry had the cojones to just go ahead and host one. It was the most successful skymaster fly-in since the inception of this or the other board (UNO).

Suggestion: if some one is willing to take the time and the effort to host a fly-in.(and Bob, et. al. and GMAS did a lot of work) Have it where they want it. Come or don't come. But, unless you are willing to work at arranging a date and location, do you really think you should volunteer some one else to do the work? Perhaps, regional fly-ins are a solution until we develop strong enough ties to warrant a national meeting

Kudos to Bob, Ernie, and Larry. If you have another one (and I hope you will),
I will do my best to come where ever it is. Thanks
