<The following 10 posts were culled from the main DFW M&G to avoid confusion...hopefully >


Maybe.

I think I'm going to be at SimuFlite for recurrent from 3/15 to 3/20 (maybe travelling commercial - yuck - on the 14th and 21st). I don't have a clue about classroom and sim schedules yet, so I may or may not be able to slip away. Even the days are subject to change up to the last second, so don't plan around me, but if I do happen to be in town during the M&G I'll do my best to get there, sim schedule permitting.

Hey Steve, I had some Smithwicks in a bar in San Antonio. Where did you get it at?

I live in an enlightened area of the country - I can buy it at the local grocery store. It is also on tap at a few select establishments around town.

Won't be able to make it down for the 24th since I'll still be in Tacoma, but CAPT'N BOB....if ya'll make another time for a hook up when Steve C and maybe TEXASPILOT are in town, I would like to try to join up with ya'll then. I also need to meet up with Mr. FROG...would rather knock out as many folks as I can in one swoop (weekend). Look forward to meeting up with some of ya'll folks and put faces to names :-)

Done.

...and your posting that info in "Mini DFW M&G" with potential dates of 3/14-3/20 why??

Sounds like your in the right place if you can't attend the "other" one on the 24th.

All right, here's my scoop. Arrive on Wednesday the 14th, afternoon. Staying just north of DFW in Grapevine area. Training during the day on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Sim sessions start Sunday, afternoon sessions, on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. Fly home Wednesday morning.

Looks like I can do Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday evening, 14th - 17th.

What works for the rest of you? Recommendations Captain_Bob?

(DAnbert, I'll move your post to start another thread)

Sorry. I only had one eye barely open this morning haha.
Yeah I think I can do this.

Saturday the 17th would work best for me as it is a 2-2/1/2 hr drive up to Dallas area from Temple.

So far LoadMaster's the only one that expressed an interest in a particular day - Saturday, and that works fine for me as well. StoneCold and I will be up around Grapevine on the north side of DFW for training, maybe there is somewhere not too far from there? That way I won't get too lost trying to find someplace across town.

Captain_Bob or anyone else from the area, any suggestions for location to meet/greet?

As far as time, StoneCold gets done at noonish, but I'm probably not available 'till later in the day. I don't know the classroom schedule so I would presume I'd be tied up 'till after 5 anyway.

Anybody else - thoughts/suggestions?

Steve & others,

Saturday's are very busy in the metroplex... but if that works well for others then I'll start researching places up around Grapevine. Unless you guys want to hit Downtown Ft. Worth or Dallas.

Ft. Worth has a nice re-vamped historical/entertainment district... it's becoming more popular than the Dallas West-End... But... being a father of two fairly new daughters... it's been a while since I've been to either place... so I'm up for suggestions as well.

Either way, I'm good for all days, & like I said... I'll come up with something for us!

Stone Cold... We still on for tomorrow? I'll give you a ring..

Bob
