Hahaahaaaaaa, I chuckled at the " pee-pour" planing bit, I thought.......... "oh, man standing in line for an hour then having to leave the line to PEE????!! " OH NO !""" YES, THAT would be poor planning ..LOL!!!!

Even a picture of the line up would be cool !!!

Hopefully you got through the registration process Brian. 
 
Looking forward to the pics.

haha i dont care how long you have to wait, photos please

Hurry up and wait, eh? Yes, it sounds like more folks are needed at the desk.

Uh. .........Not a grandiose start. Who puts TWO people on registration duty for a NATIONAL event?!?!??
I've been in this line for an hour and 15 min so far and looks like it will be another hour. Pee-pour planning on the Phoenix IPMS chapter I'm afraid. We had upwards of 15 registration personnel last year to avoid situations JUST like this.

I'm not 100% sure Maru, but I think the lobby of the Hyatt is where we meet for the Pima tour.

Now at the convention center! Standing in this line to register sux though

Me too......I'm stuck @ the shuttle counter. Should be at the hotel shortly

We just got here about an hour and a half ago. Going to go register here in a little bit.

Yes, we'll be needing photos,... lots and lots of photos.

If you want to "play it safe" just buy a "pre-loaded shopping card" that you can get at any major supermarket, etc., and give yourself a "limited allowance".

I really have NO CHOICE but to cool it on shopping for larger stuff anyway, unless I find a deal just way WAY too good to pass up since I'll have to pay to ship anything I buy that's big home. That will have a tenancy to offset that killer deal sometimes.

Now remember, PayPal has a debit card option...

PLEASE let them not accept debit cards in the vendors room! For my poor wallets sake!

Cash or bank cards in the vendors room?

Yes, I am! Check your PMs.

You know we will! I was going to take my DSLR, but with my ultra economy ticket, I can only take 1 small-ish thing on the plane with me,  and it has to be my model entries.  No way I was going to check my DSLR, so it looks like its my cell camera for me for the trip, which is NBD since it takes pretty decent pics. 
 
Cant wait to get there (hopefully with two model entries in tact)!

Hey, you guys.................travel safe and PLEASE Have a beer or three for me and for those of us who can't go... also I do hope some generous soul will post a whack of photos............... enjoy your weekend guys.....

Hopping in the car in a couple of hours.  See you guys there!  (I'm at the Hyatt too)

A beautiful morning in Phoenix!

I hope hes at the Hyatt, or else Im out a room! 

Which hotel 're you at Tim? The Hyatt?
 
Cheers,
Wolf

I finally made it. Looking forward to meeting every one.

Happy to see this is coming along.  I am looking foreword to the instructions alone.  Your sheet is the reason I will buy a F4U-1D and build it.  I actually go on the site and read all of your instruction sheets just to learn from the work you have done.  I can’t build everything but I enjoy looking.  I plan to use one of your sheets for a Spitfire IX also.  
 
Since posting above, I have had a chance to look at these online and they are stunning.  I started reading the instructions that go with them and this will keep Corsair fans working hard.  One certain fan on this site may have to start all over building Corsairs.
