Pacific Northwest Gathering

[TOMCAT21]

I was talking to Yeager and I noticed that are quite a few of us players in the Washington/Oregon area. I was wondering who  would be interested in doing our little gathering at a predetermined place. I know my schedule doesnt permit me to go the Aces High Con. Just an idea I am throwing outthere.

I think I read that Zoom, most of the 2 years I have lived here I have been gone. I dont know what is around here other than Mt Rainier (staring at it now ) and I -5. I'd would be all for it and more the input the better I suppose but this post is a start.

I've BSed my way in and out of tougher situations/partys/checkpoints before. 

Just tell your COs we'll behave... as long as there aren't any aircraft lying around for us to hop in and take a drunken joyride in.

I would enjoy this. I live in the Columbia Gorge area, and have just passed drivers saftey. Just need 3 more months on the permit before I can go pick up my lisence, so transportation will no longer be dependent on friends and family.

I live in the Columbia Gorge area

I spent many wonderful summers as a boy/young man visiting my grandparents who lived in Rufus Oregon right on the Columbia River just west of the John Day Dam.  Biggs, Hood River, Mary Hill Museum (On the WA side)....many fond memories there roaming the hills and wheatfields above the gorge.

Love the area, nice place to live. Only think I don't like is the perpetual rain in the spring.

Seattle has the excellent Museum of Flight.  Besides its wonderful collection and exhibits, it has periodic panel discussions by WWII pilots, which have been fantastic.  (In summer, the Collings Foundation visits, where you can buy half-hour flights in their B-17, B-24, B-25, and P-51, but this is sounding like a get together sooner than that.)

30 minutes north of Seattle is the Flying Heritage Collection of WWII aircraft that are taken out and flown from time to time.  That's the place where the Me 262 new builds are, as well.

Who should we add to the following list of folks within driving distance of Seattle?
