Sigh. I think I have to decide whether to do Kid's Day/BBQ or the UN Weekend. I can't afford to go out there two weeks in a row.
...anyone have a spare couch I could crash on for... a week? [insert kissy-face .gif here]
I am sorry to say that I won't be able to make it this year, but I'm ditching you guys for a weekend in Italy so it's not all bad. I had such a great time last year at both Kid's day and the BBQ. Many thanks to Vinny and his family for offering up their home to us. Have a great time!
Yes, Vinny, sorry we can't make it but thanks again for the invite. Tell your folks we said ciao!
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.

Just like every year, we will have a raffle. The raffle raises money for the functionality of the site and other site-wide projects.
IMPORTANT: I never want to exclude anyone from an event or from the opportunity to win a prize. Because of this, the MINIMUM ticket cost is $3, but you are welcome to contribute more. Though you can give any amount, no one is allowed to have more than 2 tickets, regardless of how much you contribute.
This year's raffle is going to be a fun one. In addition to some other aviation items that are somewhat typical and fun, we have some special contributions as well. Some of the prizes will include:
From Gemini Jets:
1:200 American 757-200 with Winglets (gorgeous)
1:400 American 777-200
1:400 British Airways 777-200
1:400 Continental 727-200
In addition, JetPhotos.net has offered a One Year ELITE Membership to their site.
A BIG thanks to Gemini Jets and JetPhotos.net for their contributions!
For people who do not live in NYC or cannot attend the event, you CAN purchase tickets by mail, or by paypal (PM/email me for the info). Though the raffle is only days away, there will be an honor system, and arrangements wil be made to accommodate. All snail-mailed raffle money must be received by October 4, 2008, or else any won prizes by that party will be awarded to someone else.
So, come on by the BBQ and get in on the raffle!
Let me know if you folks have any questions. Depending on questions, I might make amendments to the above rules, so please me mindful and aware. Thanks!!!

I told Phil yesterday I would have no problem having it another Saturday....
BECAUSE OF EXPECTED WEATHER, WE WILL BE POSTPONING THE BBQ UNTIL SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4.
This is SOMEWHAT tentative upon any rescheduling of Kids' Day, as we prefer to have the BBQ after the Kids' Day event.
But for now, ALL of the same plans are in place, but this time for October 4th at 5:30pm.

Damn. I'll be in Maine that weekend. Hope you all have fun!
I won't be able to make it, I have to work. Have fun everyone!

As Phil mentioned Jetphotos.net is pleased to donate these models as well as one year JetPhotos Elite membership to the NYCA BBQ as a way of saying thank you for your continued and strong support for Jetphotos.net. Below are pictures of the models that are being raffled off. Each represent the airlines both domestic, international past and present that serve each of the three major New York area airports (JFK, LGA, EWR)
This is a 200th scale model and is simply gorgeous! I want one for myself!
400th scale

400th scale. This is an out of production model and becoming harder and harder to obtain.
