All, sorry for posting and then literally going offline for awhile. I was gone for the weekend and have spent the week preparing for and taking exams.

I've since discovered that the April date I suggested conflicts with another event that several who have posted here will be attending.

23-25 Jan is indeed a weekend, but from a fair amount of experience I can say that DAY in late Jan is probably not a great idea in terms of potential weather complications

13-15 Feb is Presidents' Day weekend (incl Mon 16), so that's probably not a good idea either

Looking back now, I'm not sure what exactly I meant. I was trying to get the post completed so I could head to the airport. It may have been the January date that I was trying to propose, but that's probably not the best time to come to OH. I will be house shopping (hopefully in TX) Presidents' Day weekend, but if the long weekend is better that's a possibility that could be considered with someone else taking the reins.

I'll re-propose:

Feb 13-16 (Pres Day weekend and I'm gone)
Feb 20-22
Feb 27 - March 1
March 6-8

I am good with any of these dates, but would agree about staying away from Pres DAY weekend. :p

I am not sure how early on Fridays anyone may be available/arriving, but there are special tours available on Friday afternoons for anyone particularly interested in restoration activity:

http://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/new...p?id=123429656


Get a first-hand look at the aircraft restoration process when you sign up for a Behind the Scenes Tour at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. Registration for these free tours, which take place nearly every Friday from 12:15-3 p.m., is now open through May 2015. Space is limited, so advance registration is required....
I will probably need to be at work on Friday afternoon, but thought it may be of interest to others.

I'm booked elsewhere on President's Day weekend, but the rest can be made to work for me.

I don't care if it's President's Day, but I'd prefer it not be March 6-8 as that's my Spring Break and I may be going elsewhere.

peteropny Nov 12, 2014 7:37 am

Will try to make it!!

SkyBuck Nov 13, 2014 2:01 pm

My preference would be Feb 20-22; second choice March 6-8

rxgeek Nov 15, 2014 12:00 pm

Definitely interested as it is a short drive from Columbus.

84fiero Nov 16, 2014 2:57 pm

I'd vote for Feb 20-22

I'll keep following this; I have family there and there's plenty to do. The AF-1 hangar at WPAFB will blow you away, though I miss the days when you could drive on base and park at the hangar.

Count me as tentative on this depending on how the date works out. As for the date, the later the better. March is still susceptible to snow,

GRALISTAIR Nov 18, 2014 8:35 am

All proposed dates are good for me so far.

bdschobel Nov 18, 2014 7:12 pm

I could do March or early April.

Fairborn - The E. J. Nutter Ctr.
 
This could work for me.
I would keenly endorse the last weekend in April (24-26 April). ^
