There used to be quite a few Con pics posted to the boards...O'Club or GD...can't recall which. Highly unlikely they're still being hosted and even so, finding them is way beyond my search capabilities.  :frown:

No, a lot of pics  (including many of mine) disappeared when attachments were no longer allowed and they had to be linked from an external picture-hosting site.   Some threads still exist with text only.  :(

Ooops sorry if I hogged your pc!   :o   Yes, I'm pretty sure I took lots of pictures, especially ones on the journey between New York and Indianapolis, and I definitely remember going around trying to get photos of everyone there.  Unfortunately, I only have a few vague memories of them now.  I never did receive the promised pack of cards Jordi made with my pic as Queen of Hearts LOL.  One of the most important events of my life and nothing to show for it.    :cry

3..Shift was me wingman to the end🎲..we lost last round vs eagl &Drex (2 f15 USA pilots) in last round affer Shift shot down eagle. .I diverted merge on that one to pull off Drex..it worked..final round tried it again  ..it didn't. ..15 yr old SHIFT went on to be a RAF Harrier CV pilot 😊


The last round was Spit  mk1 (chosen by Shift)  ......which was then postponed to the Sunday so Drex and Eagle could practice..........

FWIW  "Shift" made Captain last week........... actually he flies RAF Voyager....... we got rid of our Harriers some years ago

I remember most of the '06 con .... to a point. I think it was '06. Met Slash at that one. It was kinda like my first experience at the E Club at A school. Lots of buddies drinking lots of different stuff with extra to pour in me. Good times. No pics (from me) .... but I remember someone posting pics on the forum. I think that incriminating evidence disappeared long ago (but the statute of limitations has surely expired by now).

I posted the pics from the AH2006 convention.  Yes Arlo, you were in them.  I just looked back through some old back-ups and found them.  Anyone know a good free program for hosting so I could post pictures?  All of a sudden photobucket wants money because I posted some images on this forum.

Flossy, I'll try to find those pictures from the AW Indianapolis Con in my old back-ups.

Oh that would be great if you could 1ijac!  I don't understand what's happened to mine, I'm usually so careful with photos.  :salute

That 2003 Convention was a real blast, had a lot of fun and met some really great people.

Ah good.  :)  I think I was mostly keeping an eye on the Special Events forums and any PMs/emails associated with my role at the time.  :aok

I was only 11 or 12 at the time, and I wish I hadn't missed them and had voiced my interest with my father. I am sure he would have enjoyed attending too (though I doubt my mother would have allowed us to go).

I found some photos from the conventions in the O'Club a year ago, but more recently when searching using keywords to find the forum posts via google or just right in the forum search bar, I have not been able to find any of them now. I still check every so often.
