I am really disappointed. I have been away since September. I was due back in YOW on Dec12 and was looking forward to the DO on the 18th.

Unfortunately due to COVID issues, I now wont arrive back in YOW until Dec 19 and will miss both YOW DO events.

Thanks YOWgary for organizing. Hope to meet some of you at another event soon.

Sadly, I will have to bail on the Dec 18th mini-do.

A lack of R space, due to a lack of planning on my part, kinda pushed me over the edge.

But only two non-stops a day to YOW? And 321s at that? That's just criminal.

AC128 on the 17th is R1, just saying...

Or, fly AC 200 / 352 for the DO this weekend, both are R>0 and you'd get in with enough time for a pre-dinner nap...

I'm sorry to report that, for the 2nd time in 3 Dos, mild cold symptoms are forcing me out at the last minute. In the Before Times, they wouldn't have had the slightest impact on my plans, but such is the world we live in now

I'm still a maybe for next weekend.

Glad you are taking care of yourself. Man colds nowadays are much worse than in previous years!

I should be leaving the house soon for the long drive-in, it's 11 degrees with noo minus sign in front of the number
