Hey rwinn, I wish there was more notice. I've booked my travels through the fall. If there is one next year, please let me know. I'd love to attend a FT do in ANC!

Ditto. We have friends that operate a fly-in fishing lodge in Iliamna (ILI) and would love an "excuse" to combine a Do with some serious fly fishing.

Would love to come, but unfortunately, less than 2 weeks doesn't make it that easy to get there, get organized, etc. Is it possible to set it up for another time and provide a bit more notice? Would love to see ANC!

I would love to do this but a Friday night makes it difficult for me to get all the way up there in time without taking time off.

If you do this again, with 21-plus days notice, I would be game....

Looks like attendance might be a bit thin! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif I should be able to escape work for a couple of hours to meet for drinks or dinner, though.

So is it just you and I, rwinn?

That's what it looks like at this point! Seat 2A had mentioned something about the possibility of being in town... Maybe we'll have a huge rush at the last minute...

In any event, it would be good to grab a bite and hang out with you for awhile.

I'd love to come to an ancrorage do, but like others, am already booked well into the fall. Any chance of setting something up later on when you can see the Northern lights? This would be awesome.

Seat 2A would love to join y'all down south but alas, Friday evening I will be 250 miles to the north, returning 40 some odd of our nation's finest from another fine day in Denali National Park.

Great animal day yesterday on the 1030am Eielson run! 11 grizzlies, oodles of caribou, a mess of Dall sheep, 1 porcupine and 1 cow moose. Oh yes, three arctic ground squirrels as well. Not bad for an otherwise cold and rainy day. The 3:00pm Toklat run beckons this afternoon...

Seeing as how it's just eastwest and myself, we might have some flexibility to pick a another day if that would work out for you.

I'm here (ANC) until Sunday, so let me know if there's another day that works for you.

Hey, it turns out that I will be in ANC this Friday as well. I get in pretty late - around 11:15pm I think (the UA ORD-ANC flight) and then I'm headed back out on the 12:45am UA ANC-SEA flight Sunday morning.

Are you guys up for doing something late Friday or can we make it Saturday night??

I'm totally flexible, a reasonable time on Saturday might work better tnan super late on Friday..... What works best for you eastwest?

-Robert

How about a Anchorage TODO during Rondi?
Lots going on and a good reason to party!
Besides, -10 will keep the faint hearted away so the hard core can really party.

Ouch -- just saw where UA will eliminate their winter ANC service as part of service cuts. Maybe AS will comp me?

Two questions:

1) Where did you see/here this?

2) If it's true, from all cities to ANC, or just some cities?
