Sorry I started such a large discussion on location guys. After Joanne and I flew to Emporia, and had a great time I might add, we were talking about it on the way home. The one thing that bothered

What was your plan if you had got airborne? David J. Gall

Hi Bob, There have been 4 or 5 people bring this (some by private e-mail) pre or post weekend Oshkosh suggestion up and I think we should now give this very heavy consideration. In years past,

A few thoughts on moving or combining events: 1) The "Mountain States Fly-in" is now an Engine-heads forum. Nothing wrong with that, but it's not a Tandem Wing event any longer. However, the

I'd like to repeat a suggestion I made maybe 10 years ago. Why not schedule the Field of Dreams for the weekend before or after Oshkosh. This would let the people with a long way to travel kill two

I disagree with trying to squash the smaller events. I don't think that the smaller events detract from the Field of Dreams. When Spring comes, I am ready for a Quickie event. I always look forward

One of the reasons I haven't made the Livermore trip is the timing right after Oshkosh. It's always a big deal getting everything ready, then spending a week and lots of dough at the biggest aviation

Jim, Yes, I understand that and I agree with you on it, I'd too like to see one larger TW fly-in. Like others have said it will probably not negate others wanting smaller Quickie "get togethers" in

Larry, Do you know if they charge for this and if so how much. That is a factor! I do think it is a good place to have it, and they do have cheaper fuel prices. Cheeze heads like their beer so we know

My thoughts on where to have the fly-ins is, the people that live in or near the central US are in good shape as they can go to which ever one they wish to. Those of us that live at either coast have

I like the cheese and beer part!!!! Spud

Hi Jim, I thought the same thing when the Don Stewart setup the Mountain States event, then someone did the one in Matoon, IL and then the Livermore event, so forth. You can't blame these folks

I have thought this might be the case myself Jim. Doug "Hawkeye" Humble A Sign Above www.asignabove.net Omaha NE N25974

David, Spud and group, The problem is; with the 4 or 5 tandem winged events around the country, we are tending to fractionalize these events. If we are looking for a better turnout and better

Q guys, I think we should look at the criteria we are trying to meet with the changing of our TW fly-in location. If the location doesn't meet the needs and criteria of the list than hold off

Just thinking about America for a minit, it seems to me that as time passes the best product rises to the top. Witness Oshkosh. A monopoly discourages creative competition. j.

Has anyone considered OSH? It is upper Midwest. I have been in there in the "off season" (meaning not the last week in July), and found that it is a very nice airport with lots of facilities

Jay Well what can I say, Oshkosh is the best central location for all the US and Canada's aircraft Fly-in's. I am not saying this because I have my shop, 100 miles straight south. The EAA

No tower at Iowa City and the big building off of runway 25 is the old United Hanger which is now empty as it is scheduled for demolition as part of a runway improvement. Until it is gone it could be
