Always great to support the FFG and United We Care efforts. Thanks to all the organizers...
Really appreciate the participation from all the IAD staff, including Capt. Simons, Chief Pilot at Washington. Great conversations.
And always wonderful to see Frankie and Linda from HQ.
Until the next one....Cheers!

I really enjoyed the day as well. You knew you were with a special group when you have United's Washington area Chief Pilot drive the van you're in from the restaurant to the museum.
Speaking of the museum, the visit was exceptional, in part because of the very knowledgeable tour guide and his ability to respond to the highly technical questions from our group. I'd been to the Air & Space museum on the mall in DC twice and didn't even realize this place existed.

Thanks to everyone for coming! We had 40 attendees in total, including 6 guests from United. As mentioned, we had a wonderful tour of the museum thanks to our guide. Also appreciate everyone's generosity - we raised nearly $2500 for the United WeCare Employee Relief Fund from the auction!
