Frederick MD AOPA Fly-in (June 5-6th)


Recommended Posts

I am unsure if I will attend.  Due date for our first child is June 2nd.  So if I am able to make it, it would be in the AM for only a few hours.  I would drive.

 

I would love to attend as it is a much better date for the event than last year.

 

Thanks for all your hard work George.  I'll second the good information in the video.  Also liked your introduction.

So Seth , how much is the missle selling for...HaHa

Seeing that I was given permission to attend the formation clinic last weekend in Martinsburg, I think I'll be allowed to keep the Missile. However I highly doubt I'll hit anywhere close to 100 hours this year. Still thrilled about the reason.

I'll update everyone when the little one arrives.

I REALLY wanted to be there today. I even planned to drive up so weather was not an issue.

However I will not be there as my wife gave birth to a little girl yesterday afternoon. She's already a Daddy's girl and who knows, maybe a future aviator.

Have a great time at the AOPA open house and I'm sorry I missed it. I'll open another thread soon with a picture of our first child.

Take care,

-Seth
