Default RV-9(A) get together at AirVenture 2012

It is that time of year again RV-9(A) guys and girls. Let?s try to get together again.

With that said I have not been real happy with our Oshkosh ?meet and greets? the past few years. Seems we just blend in with the rest of the RV crowd before the banquet. Don?t get me wrong I have really enjoyed it, but I feel like we are not really getting to meet, talk and get to know other RV-9(A)ers. (And it is hard to get a good seat at the banquet.)

Let?s have a discussion over the next few days about where we might meet so we have more time.

Ideas;
1) Same time/place as the last couple of years (just prior to the Van?s Banquet)
2) Evenings however Monday and Tuesday are out
3) Lunch ? it is hot and there is a show going on
4) Breakfast ? have some coffee and one of those hot cinnamon sprinkled donuts in the cool of the morning (sounds good to me)

Any ideas/thoughts?

Is it open to those of us who are still building our 9A's? If so, I'm in. Sounds like the RV-related activity dies off after Tuesday evening, except for a Team RV airshow on Weds. It would be fun to meet later in the week.

Open to flying, building or even thinking about building an RV-9A or RV-9.

Thanks for the input. Lets let this thread run a few days.

Love to do this! Need to catch a Wed eve flight out of ORD, so Wed noon is the latest that I could get together (and that is tight).

BTW, building my 9 (wings)
