Hello guys,

    I've never been to S&F so let me see if I've got this straight:

 You take a plane for the show and still have to pay $100 to get in.
 You get parked in a bog.
 You get hassled for giving out your name and telephone number on a card.
 You do all the work.
 You get charged through the nose for everything while you're there.

WHY DO YOU KEEP GOING BACK?
Wouldn't it be a lot more fun to do an experimental, or maybe an auto
conversion only somewhere in the middle of the country where nobody hassled
you and no one had to fly coast to coast?
    Has anyone driven across Kansas lately?  You could crash anywhere in 99%
of that state, slide for 5 miles in the grass and never worry about hitting
anything but a cow.  Why else do you think Boeing, Raytheon, et al are
located near Wichita?
    I think an auto conversion only convention is long over due, and I think
Kansas is a good place to have it because of it's central location.  If you
wanted to stay nearer a larger city, Kansas City has an abundance of
beautiful GA airports as well as abundant hotel accommodations, but I think
Wichita, or Topeka would be good too (By the way, I don't live in Kansas,
it's just a perfect place for a fly-in.)
    Think it over guys.  If you're really tired of getting kicked around
then do something about it.  You know the cliché, "Insanity is doing the
same thing over and over and expecting a different result."

IMHO it is not quite that bad and is better than OSH.

   SSSSHHHHHH!!!!   Don't TELL everybody!!    I *DO* live in Kansas,
and you're right, but I don't want all those loonie 'coasties' moving
here!!      ;-)

PS  Can Leon get Ruby Slippers down under?  I hear they are THE **FASTEST**
way to get to Kansas from OZ.   ;-))
