Glad to ear those word!dverhees wrote:K-9, good copy. "Fairly late" was the trigger. I guess I wouldn't call 2 days after the NTA found out officially from the host base exactly late. We'll get it on the site after we put our bags down and say hello to the family. Anyway, NTM 16 is gonna be big. If the force offerings hold, it will be our biggest. The Friday spotters day should be a good one. The Meet, the Friday Spottersday, and the airshow are all quite new events for the current base staff, especially due to the size. It is pretty sure there will be more to the Saturday airshow than just the announced SPAF teams/demos; but, the wheels turn slowly down south, so don't expect an early list. Cheers, Don
