as long as people are happy with the DOs I organize and as long as there are attendants, I go on. at a precedent DO, you feel if people want more, if they claim for a next year edition ... if I had to pay for a DO out of my pocket because some FTer would try to cheat at some dinner - it would probably be the last one or at least I'd have to consider to do it in private for people I know and I can trust - and not on FT and therefor open to everybody.

I know of get togethers on other IBBs as well. airliners.net meet from time to time at Zurich and I guess that people on other IBB want to see who's behind a handle and therefor try to meet.
but I don't expect others than FTer to fly for a weekend several thousand miles
edited to add: I hope that some wrong directions and some stairs didn't make people not want to come to my DOs
