Guest Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 It is buddy. Just a little fun with you. But it does seem with all going on, our time at the show is going to be limited. Not that big a deal really. I know my entry isn't placing anywhere. Like I said earlier, my main focus is to meet everyone and have fun.....OH and have a pizza and beer with you.......Harv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I thought I should bring it up again. The SAC museum has a B-36, B-52, B-58, Avro Vulcan to name a few! http://sacmuseum.org/ Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantom Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I will be going to the SAC museum during the day. Not sure which day though. So if someone wants to go I can provide a ride for 2 or a tight 3. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 1 month or so to go. I just hope I'll have a new build to bring. Yeah, was hoping for same, but Ill be lucky to have the D.VII finished in time, but it will be no contest winner. Ill have some stuff (at least 1) to enter I tried and failed to make the LAST time the NATs were in Omaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phantom Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Apparently there are rooms available at the embassy suites and the Marriott at the IPMS convention rate. Call the hotel directly. This info is from a post on the IPMS website. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANicoll Posted June 27, 2017 Author Share Posted June 27, 2017 I want to see that Hustler - has always been one of my favorite aircraft. Who is doing the Night at the Museum tour on Thursday? I'm not sure if I'll make the SAC tour, sadly, but this is my first Nationals so I do want to spend SOME time in the hall! I booked my room at the Marriott last week via the IPMS website with no problems. Pretty decent rate but I'm using miles for my flight so that kind of off-sets whatever the hotel cost is. I've been told to make a good shopping list before going or else you just get lost with everything. Any shopping strategies? Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
