Parents visiting for the weekend so highly unlikely I’ll make it up there. Add Jason Somes’ MiG-17 as well. And the EA-18 demo is LOUD…amazed me just how much so at OSH.
Broke one cable, missed the other…jeez
Not to second-guess, just curious on the divert location choice, but why not divert to EDW and a lakebed landing? Roll forever until you stop.

Wonderful to see you too, Huggy! So funny how we have common friends too, I met Gucci back at March earlier too.
And yeah that was my friend who didn’t make it in on Monday. Rough, but that’s the business, anyone can have their day.
Anybody around, I’m at the NATCA booth all day tomorrow and am doing a small presentation at some point. We’re in a large tent by the Tower. Come on by to say hi, ask for Gabe, say what up!
Huggy, I’ll find ya
So…roll call?
well let me get there first, it appears that may be interesting.
EDIT - it was not at all interesting, total non-event.
