It looks like exhibit space at Oshkosh is as expensive as you'd expect.
I've sent them an email asking if there's any way to get a break,
since we will only be selling the concept, not marketing a particular
vendor's products.

If we CAN get this, I'm asking for outdoor space, where the planes will
be parked.  We need to be outdoors to run the engine.

We will probably need a generator -- a WANKEL-powered generator.  Anyone
have one (or willing to build one that we can borrow)?

I've sent emails to several "surprise guests" for display items.  I'm
open to suggestion.  I'd like to show the itty-bitty RC-plane engine, if
anyone has one of them, and representative engines of various sizes.

If this comes off, I'd like to see every rotorhead there, wearing the
"Team Rotary" logo T-shirt, ready to answer questions from the crowd as
you wander around the show.  I'm willing to get some of these shirts,
hats and stickers done (I think you'll like how they look, I've got the
basic design sketched out), if you guys will buy them.  I'll get pricing
info on them next week.

It looks like several of you are behind the idea.  How many will support
it?  I'm not going to go to the vendors if the grass-roots guys aren't
with me on this.
