husker267, I've gone ahead and added you to the list and while I won't be there, I assume there shouldn't be any issues with signing up now. Have fun!

Rumor has it that dinner was great. So, did anyone convince the Captain to register on FT?:p

[[I'm terrible with remembering names and are missing some on the pictures and I would be thankful if someone could send me a PM and help me out]]

What a fantastic evening!
 
^Many thanks to Randy, Capt. Flanagan and all involved for a very enjoyable evening. Dinner was amazing and the company superb! I can't believe nearly 5 hours went by with no lull in the conversation. Will post some pics tomorrow.

Randy is the most gracious and generous host, and a wonderful person to meet. He made everyone feel welcome, and made a point to talk with everyone personally. Randy expressed gratitude to Captain Flanagan for all he does for his travelling guests.

Captain Flanagan regaled us with interesting stories that show how much he cares about people. His simple acts of kindness go the extra mile for United customers and set an excellent example to follow. It was truly a pleasure to see you again.

Capt. Flanagan brought gifts for the attendees, and said if any attendees did not receive a book or CD, he wants to mail them to you. Please PM me your name/address and I'll pass them on.

In true FT fashion, although many of us were locals, we'd only met in other cities at FT DOs. :)

Can't wait to see each of you again!

What fun!
 
Another excellent Do! Thanks to all for making a latecomer feel welcome, it was a lot of fun.
Great to meet up with the HNL Do crowd again, and to meet new FTers as well.

Huge thanks to Randy for his generosity and amazing graciousness, and to Capt Denny for his spectacular attitude and great stories.

Thanks for the pictures, heffa!^^^ Looks like an amazing time. On one hand I'm bummed not to have been there, but am still so happy it worked out!

Thanks Lucky, you really missed something. For anyone of you who weren't there, my pictures were taken by my cellphone without flash etc, but still great [of course.] So far, 28 views and still counting...

Well...if so many of you were locals, and if Capt. Flanagan flies more than occasionally to DEN, maybe it's possible to do a re-do! :D
