Any reports from the Convention? *Jet sailplane on display? *NK vario?
Interesting talks? *Etc.


And how is attendance?


Many inbound and departing flights were canceled today due to the ice
storm. School was out and many restaurants closed, so the SSA meals I
think have been well attended. I've been able to feed the meter right
outside the convention center doors both days so far, so parking's
been really convenient.

Like to see more new faces though. The two school classes that were
supposed to visit today were canceled.

Overall, lighter than it should be.
