Given that I have been waiting for this event for several years, and the fact that I have actually had dreams about it this week, I can safely say that I will be there with bells on, people. Keep an eye out for the longhaired dude with the Boeing hat.

Was a great day today, and I'm excited for tomorrow.
Please be sure to come by and say hi. I'll be wearing my desert flag hat and probably doing the raffle announcements and coordinating the Continental tours. I will also be back and forth between the NYCA table, which will be manned by Eric and another friend.
Hope to see you folks out there!
The goody bags have a custom Gemini Jets 737-200 made for the show, as well as other cool pins, stickers and more. The show is much more than just a typical collectibles show than you're used to at LGA or even EWR.

If anyone is on the tours tomorrow am around 10:30-11 you might see a nice low approach on Runway 29......
Too nice a day to spend hte time in the car and drag the kids.
hitting the beach with them instead. Enjoy the show, everyone.
PS Im going it alone with the kids while wife is at work. MAJOR points!!!!!!
And I, I took the path less traveled by
and that has made all the difference......yet...
I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

So the show is over.
I found the show to be more crowded on Friday then Saturday, but overall it was a pretty good turnout. I was disappointed that more members from this site did not attend. I met a lot of good people, made some new contacts and according to Phil I came in 2nd in the photo contest, beat out by a slide. oh well.
Next Year its in Portland, Oregon. Who's going?

Portland....way to liberal a place for me. But I'll definitely have ot do a show in teh future and may plan a weekend trip around it if the venue is right.
I guess the DC6 was out and about? I thought I saw her north of Lloyd Neck harbor while we were at the beach on ...Sat AM.

The DC-7 was doing flights...low level at 500ft over the local airports. FAA really hooked up the patterns.
Eric won the category of Best Air photo with his sunset silhouette MD-11 landing at LAX, but narrowly came in 2nd in the Best Of Show award with a gorgeous Eastern 757 slide. I'll show you folks the results once they publish.
The show was a lot of fun. Friday was definitely a little busier than Saturday. Friday was cool because the bar opened in the hallway outside the ballroom...so you could walk around the trade show tables with a beer in hand. A new experience!
I had a great time. I hope that some of you make it out to other AI shows in the future. Next year's in Portland OR should be good...I wonder if there will be any Boeing tours! Hmmmm

That would be great, but Seattle is about a 3+ hour drive.Originally Posted by Phil D.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
It's a 2.5 hour drive if you go fast enough.but Seattle is about a 3+ hour drive
It's not uncommon for the tour to arrange for a charter bus and make a 2 hour drive if there's an extra cool spot. Mohave being over 2 hours from LAX being an example of such a tour.
