Does anyone know if there are guest pass codes available from someone for Heli-Expo? I am trying to get to bring my dad along, just for the exhibit hall and was trying to avoiding $110.00 charge for him to tag along.
If you have GoPro or other aviation footage you would like made into a montage, message or email thomas.tsmedia@gmail.com This is a spare time hobby so it's free of charge.

It also just occurred to me more importantly, does anyone know the date of the fly in, and are any member here participating?

So, who's all going? I'll be there, and I just booked a room, so some hotels still have space.

Hey Steve,

Looks like I won't be there this year. Take lots of pics.

If I can make it down for just one day, I will.

The fly-in is Wednesday. I'll be a backup "safety pilot".
In space, no one can hear you scream... but if you put a helicopter up there, some jerk would complain about the noise.

Alright I've found dates for the fly in are feb.8&9 with the 10th being a rain check day. I'll be on the expo floor on the 12th. Anyone who will be there I would love to meet up with you just pm me. Also, with all of my video stuff I figure I would film the fly in, is there any way to find the flight plans or times Lakota for the aircraft coming in to the pad from Executive. It's not that I want to play favorites, it's just that I prefer certain aircraft... So I do play favorites.

Swisster, look for a 6-5", 250 pound guy with a sh*t eating grin on his face and a VR pin on his id.....that would be me!

We always plan a VR get together, years ago it was just 3 of us, now its more like 20 of us! DP or I will put out some details as it gets closer.
