this is sounding better and better.
the mini con would be awsome but just to get together with other AH pilots would be great.

We need a coordinator in GR.
Any takers?

I will be living in MD by that time, but I will still have family in MI.  Can make it a double trip also.  :)

Chaos, you could see if they would throw in a banquet room if we bought so many rooms and also see what kind of bandwidth we could get in that room. If its downtown we may be able to link up wireless if there are no t1
lines.

Does anyone know if you can play AH on several local machines linked to the AH server using a NAT router ? if so all we would need is one IP address.

Someone may want to contact the Kalmazoo air museum and see if they may even want to give us a room if we open it up to spectators to observe 21st century virtual WWII Combat in action on that day in Feb.

They have quite a virtual air combat setup in the museum.  It's a two-axis simulator, that is hooked up to a multiplayer game.  The game is not as good as AH, but rolls and loops are pretty <cough> immersive.    :)

You can have your very own for $180,000, so bring yer checkbooks.   Maybe HT will port it to AH, if we buy in quantity.   ;)

I'll be there on Saturday for sure if the weather don't do us in . It's about a fast two drive or so , or 3 if the weather turns bad .

Would for sure like to shake your hand HT for making such a nice game , hope u can make it , great to hear that you can vist your sis at the same time , I know that feeling mine lives in Az .

As far as flying AH , I can do that at home a lot easier for sure . But to sit in a real warplane sounds like a great treat to me .

I plan on going now either way , then just making the trip back home .

u all take care ,

Spro minus my kid I am sorry I have not been able to get in contact with you, hell Kzoo seems like we can actually do it?  That is, if all the MI flyers an spawn from ther wives?  Some of us have been friends for years ad i think the Kzoo would be a great way to actually meet the flyers- enemies  ;) that we have all known.  And if worse comes to worse trust me I  know the breweries in town as well  ;)~  Tell me how your spit 9 almost keeled my 190 D9  :)

Traverse City here.. well, Sutton's Bay to be precise. I'm not sure Kzoo is a good idea though. Bell's beer is soooo good I might never go back home  :) On the other hand it might be the only place to find Oberon in Febuary.
