Some of us think it is high time we held another Forum Meet. It has been a year since the last one, at Ardmore for the Harvard anniversary.
We also think it is high time we returned to Classic Flyers Museum for a Forum Meet.
So I am trying to gauge interest. If a Forum Meet were held at Classic Flyers Museum's Boeing Room, with a range of guest speakers, and a chance to look round the museum, in July 2022, are you keen to come?
I really need to know if we'll have enough people to make it viable. These days a lot of people do not seem to be getting out and about like they were. Surely by then though the whole fuss over the virus should be totally gone, I hope.
Let me know now if you would come and how many friends you'd like bring along.

I'm interested, thanks Dave. Ever thought about having one at Omaka. I'm dying to get there. Cheers Richard

Omaka, maybe we will do one there again one day, not this time though.

By pure fluke it looks like I will be able to make this, as part of a holiday I'm driving from Auckland to Wellington, so a slight diversion to Classic Flyers to meet some crew.

Put me on the list, Dave. May change depending on specialist visit later this month.

Yep. I'll be a starter too. Haven't been over to CF recently. Good excuse to hop across the hills.

I'm keen, perhaps I can convince another Whanganui-based forumite to pop along with me...

Add me in too as a volunteer. I will work with Andrew Gormlie (Founder and CEO of Classic Flyers) with this idea. We have already had a chat about it.

Please forgive me Dave: has a date been set for this? I may have transport from, and can arrange to!

Yes, just working on details for this in between everything else. A proper announcement thread will come very soon.

ANNOUNCEMENT
Unfortunately a few things have arisen for both of us who were organising this event, so we will not be able to hold it in July as planned.
Instead we are postponing the idea till the Summer, maybe around February 2023. We do still intend to make it happen, just not this year sadly.
Watch this space.
