To ALL Air Warrior Pilots
You are hereby cordially invited to the Air Warrior Pilot Reunion to be held
on June 10th - 13th in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Reunion is hosted by Mike
"Jordi" Bowman.
I have enough interest that the reunion is a GO for launch !
I will do all I can to help out anyone who is interested in coming but
cannot commit at this time.
I am putting together a reunion of those players who had flown at any time
Air Warrior in any of its versions.
The guest of honors will be the key members of the Kesmai staff and player
representatives.
From Kesmai
Jonathan Baron - Is willing to come.
Kelton Flinn - Is thinking about coming but consider him a "tentative" for
now.
John Taylor - Is thinking of coming if a certain potential conflict does not
interfere.
Frank Williamson - Would come tomorrow if it were held that soon - A
definite will be there !
Player Reps
Steve "Mage" Lackey - He is looking forward to it.
Gary "Moggy" Cooper - he can only commit as a "maybe"
Jeff "Quarters" Hanna - Right now he is free that weekend to attend for a
day.
Mike "Dose" Brandsma - Would plan to come but cannot commit to the date this
far out.
My feelings are after talking to the guys above is that the more people who
plan to attend the greater interest they have in attending.
I have an Air Warrior Pilot Page web site setup.
http://awreunion.myevent.com/Please fill out the AW Pilot Page even if you are just visiting this site
and cannot attend.
We want to know where all of the AW Pilots are at today.
At this time no money has been spent by me to get this going nor is ANY
being asked of you.
The travel people at my work have been very gracious to work with me and a
hotel to keep the cost down as much as possible.
This is the hotel.

Right now the room cost is $109 per night. This gets you all of the
amenities of the hotel that include a complimentary cook to order breakfast
and a Managers reception of complimentary snacks and drinks each evening.
They have free parking at the hotel.
They are also going to include free Wireless internet access in the room ( I
am checking to see if that includes wired access in each room ).
Right now I am looking at a CON fee of $100 dollars.
This includes the following.
CON Shirt
Upgraded seating at the Indy Airshow on June 12th ( Saturday )
Banquet Dinner Friday evening.
Con room fees and other miscellaneous fees.
There will be an additional cost for any guest you would want to bring to
the Banquet dinner and or the Air show.
Some Extra Add-ons I am thinking of are ( Not sure of the cost yet ) each
person can buy them or not . . .
Buy a second CON Shirt.
Buy an Upgraded CON shirt - Baseball type with your handle on the back and
your favorite number
AW CON Calendar - It would have the BEST pictures from the con on each
month's page plus each person's picture on their birthday. It would be
mailed to the people who request one.
( For those that could not attend they can also buy the CON shirt and or the
upgraded one and Calendar )
I am also thinking if we have enough people interested ( 30 or more at $25
per person ) in having a Monte Carlo night on Saturday.
Each person can take their winnings and buy more raffle ticket for prizes
that have been donated.
If enough wives plan to attend I have an offer to a free massage to a lucky
person ( I will NOT be giving the massage ! ).
The others can schedule a massage at the same time. There are plenty of
shopping areas.
The Children's museum and Zoo are good for the kids.
The TENTATIVE Schedule would be . . .
Thursday - CON ROOM Setup - meet and great those that plan to arrive early.
Friday - Q and A with our guest on the history of AW, how they all got
involved, what they are doing now and any questions you ever had about AW.
Friday night - Banquet Dinner
Saturday - Air show
Saturday night - Fun stuff or Monte Carlo night
Sunday - close up by noon and enjoy what time left we have with each other.
The CON room would be open as early as we are allowed in and close as late
until they kick us out.
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
Please reply back as soon as you can.
If I have already contacted you on this before this is just a reminder then.
Thanks in advance,
Mike "Jordi" Bowman
