Alexis Park in Las Vegas would be Perfect. They have relatively cheap rooms, and some great ballrooms. I went to DEFCON there this year, and it was freakin awesome. I would be glad to help with the arrangements. Im itchin to go to a con...last one i was at was the '97AW Con in Houston.

exit 5 off 190 can only get off on it going north. head to the lake. when it ends look right. i rented a room there for 16 years so they wouldnt make me stay over nite waiting for russer foods.

BlueJ1, a few miles north of 'The Ralph' on Lake Ave.
If you drive down that road and see some lunatic with his arms straight out 'flying' around his from yard mumbling 'Take that you Rooky!!!' and 'Gonna get you, you Bishop you!!' that would be me.
{ Of course the family tries to get me to fly in the 'backyard arena' }

I used to live in a apartment right next to the ralph on a street called richmond, has a pizza shop on corner ( or did). That was back when it was still the Rich stadium and the Rolling Stones had a concert that we could hear clear as day in our backyard.

Yeah, but people still gotta be able to fly into the con, and leave when it's over. Hard to do if there's 4 ft. of snow on the runways. And, do you really wanna be stuck in a convention hall with thiis group when the beer runs out and you can't go get anymore?

Beer is a common thing around here, and were close for our flying Canadian friends.

If it was in Detroit, I think the membership would be less afterwards. I hate that town. Anywhere would be good, except for the west coast. Count me in for the next one, and bring lots of Rum

Pensacola. Beach, booze and the Naval Aviation Museum.

You say "anywhere would be good"... just NOT Detroit or anywhere on the west coast. You've cut out a few places there from the anywhere list

Vegas during a Red Flag excercise. Be cool to go sit at the end of the runway and watch all them planes launch on their missions out of Nellis!!!:aok

Honest.

We have a saying in the North Riding:

From Hell, Hull and Halifax good Lord deliver us!
