Migrating from the Detroit thread...Who would be interested in a cS gathering in Ohio, specifically at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force (NMUSAF) in Dayton, sometime in the next month or two? While at I work at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base where the NMUSAF is located, I actually live in Cincinnati (about 50-60 minutes away), so I can't offer a very convenient gathering place for us. Would anyone else more local be interested in hosting? If not, I can at least suggest places to meet, eat, or stay near the museum and do some coordination. More importantly, I can try to make some arrangements for a group tour of the museum's restoration facilities and possibly some other stuff, depending on scheduling. So who's in and when? The later we do it, the better our chance for decent weather. I'll be out in mid-March, but am otherwise ok. |

I am in —By the way, I talked with the museum today and they said if it was a small group (less than 10) that we could gather in the cafe to meet. A couple of big events may give us a bonus option. April 20th will be the Doolittle Raider Reunion with an autograph session and May 10th is Space Day — last year they had four astronauts at the Space day. |

I might be interested, depending on when it's planned for and whether I can bring my kids (9 & 10 year old boys) if I have them that weekend. |

Ok, since there seems to be a critical mass, I'll look into some dates (such as those suggested before) that might work and then poll the audience. Springtime seems much more appealing than winter, even a mild one like we're having now. |

Any more details? As I'm a big time camper, my available weekends once the weather breaks are few.The sooner I know, the better chance I can make it! |
