Jay..
Thank you for taking the time to put this on.. Unfortunately I've not been to OSH since that one time in 2002, when I tracked you down one night up there and sat round chatting with you and the missus. Gas is too damn expensive.. and my personal finances are just not in a position to support going to OSH yet again. I've not even flown in a year and a half now, and have let my medical, EAA and AOPA subs go to boot. Just gave my last presentation (OSH survival guide, no less) at our EAA chapter meeting, because I am stepping down as VP of my chapter and having let things lapse will no longer be a member. Maybe sometime in the future when I grow wings again, you might still be doing the BBQ/Pool party, because I know I am missing something fun and special with a great group of people. Dave from Houston Wally the Squirrel wrote: What a sad indication of the state of these newsgroups.

Jay, it's not withing striking distance for me, but I hope it's a great success for you.

Maybe sometime in the future when I grow wings again, you might still be
doing the BBQ/Pool party, because I know I am missing something fun and special with a great group of people. Thanks, Dave. It's truly disheartening to hear that you've dropped out of flying altogether -- but I know you're not alone. (Don't worry -- the Fly-In Pool Party will continue as long as we own the hotel!) I can see why you've dropped out, though. My son and I just got back from a three-day custom car show in Des Moines. There were thousands of people in attendance, and you could literally walk for days and never see the same car twice. More importantly (and to the point) for about 10% of what I've spent on aviation over the years, we could own many of the coolest, most tricked-out collectible cars at that show. I will never become as excited about cars as I am about airplanes, but it's easy to see why "normal" people might choose to go that route. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

What a sad indication of the state of these newsgroups. Someone posts an
open invitation to an aviation themed party they've gone to considerable expense to host annually for several years, and so far the responses consist of a dozen unrelated posts from idiots slagging each other. It's why I'm not here much anymore. Come on over to Pilots of America, if you want to experience what this group once was. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
