2008 SOAPA Fly-In.

Thank you Michigan Flyers! Some elements of the meeting went better than others, with the featured speaker and the museum experience being the highlights, but throughout it all your enthusiasm and commitment to your guests was very evident and much appreciated by this participant. I was particularly impressed with your willingness to devote a day to greeting arrivals at both the airport and the hotel. No one could reasonably ask that anyone try harder to create a successful meeting than the effort you all put forth. Thanks again, for everything. Best wishes, Steve & Sandi

My hat is off to the three Mich. fliers, Larry,Herb and Jerry. They hosted the finest meeting we could ever ask for. Those that attended would have to agree. They put a lot of time and effort to make us all feel welcome. Jerry was at the airport on our arrival while Herb was running the Mac.Island trip and Larry was at the Hotel to direct that end of the arrival. The Hotel was the greatest, looked new with great meeting rooms,food and bar. The museum film was great on the Brothers to the Resque. The meetings I attended where also great.
I wish I could have stayed for the whole 4 days. Maybe when I retire and have more free time. Dale Campbell

I just wanted to post on behalf of Ken and myself...we had a super time in Michigan and it was really great to put a face to some of the names on this web board. I have a new appreciation for the state of Michigan and found Mackinaw Island to be just wonderful. I want to take my wife and kids back there sometime. We were sorry we missed the museum day and banquet but the weather really was getting nasty so it was the right decision to get ahead of it when we scurried out after day 2 of the festivities. This is the longest trip I have taken in my new (old) '65 Skymaster and she proved to be a capable cross-country machine. Many thanks to Larry, Herb and Jerry for all their efforts putting this together, it was really an excellent time.

Hope to see you all again soon.
