The best meeting place would be the base of the control tower.

Doug you're a pilot right? Just have a jetcareers fly in at a couple places around the country whenever you're going to be stuck somewhere for a period of time. Maybe one in the east coast, one in the midwest, and one in the west sometime. Come on, I'm know the MD 90 is big enough to carry kegs! And then just have a cover charge or an admission price to help finance the website too if needed.

Would Long Beach, California work for a jetcareer "get-together? I work for FlightSafetyBoeing in Long Beach, maybe I can arrange something? How many people are we talking about? Maybe I can arrange a tour of the Boeing plant, rides in full flight simulators (reduced rated)? We have the space, if there is genuine interest in this, I will go to the big boss to see what he is willing to do.

Oh yeah & know kegs!

LA would seem the most logical place to have it. We have a concentration of people here... and it's not too far for the AZ guys either. Maybe we can even get Doug in a 172 and see how many loopy-loo's he can take ..

L.A.??

I'd sure feel bad for our friends on the East Coast!

Awww hell - here we go again... EAST COOOOOOAST!!!

Seriously - having "regional" fly in's would not be a bad idea. Then maybe once every two years - have one somewhere in the middle of the country.

That being said - Eagle's idea of meeting at a fly-in that is already established is the best idea so far.

A fly-in kegger, huh? Yeah, that sounds like real good idea. (Doug, is your insurance paid up?)

Seriously, I'd love to have a get-together with you guys (and gals). I'll just limit my imbibing to Atlanta champagne (Coca-Cola).

Sniff! Sniff! You guys are serious, ok, how many people are we talking about? Send me an email
mike.comuniello@fsbti.com

In your email, write what month would be good for you or if it does not matter.

Once we get the date lined up, I know the people at the some of the local hotels, maybe I can get a jetscareer.com rate??

Make sure you guys have your passports, may need to check as per the Home Line Defense Department.

This could be kind of fun....

Mike

WOW! That was not too bad, company was receptive to sponsoring a "get-together", though the first question out of their mouth was "How Many?"

We have classrooms or if their is a large amount, can do it outside & set up a BBQ.

Can pick a day when the simulators are light or empty, while it is static, it can be viewed, or for a price we can set up a ride.

Once I know the number of people, pretty sure I can arrange tours of the Boeing plant where they make the 717.

If you guys are serious, let me know, as I have their attention.

If I do not hear anything, I will let it die, hell, it wasn't my idea
