Nothing but the best! "I don't know why they call this stuff hamburger helper. It does just fine by itself, huh? I like it better than tuna helper myself, don't you, Clark?"
"you're the gourmet around here, Ed!"
I'm going. I went to the first show two years ago. I should be there when it opens as I'll be staying the Saturday night in the hotel.
I'll look for your large models Patrick.

Huge turnout so far.. some friends of mine are there and between the three of us at least 20 models purchased 1/200 1/100 and 1/72..
My friends earlier in the week have found my elusive Britten Norman Islander and Trislanders too!

Man you are all over the world! Daytona the day before, Amsterdam the next! You must be taking your vitamins or shotgunning the Red Bulls and Monsters!

Actually, no I guess I sounded confusing, my friends are there reporting back to me and I’m telling them yes buy it for me! So between the 3 of us... mass purchases ..

Andrew, I always love when Eddie goes on a buying spree as I know we all benefit down the road at some point!
100% True!

Thanks for posting the videos! They were great! Nice that next year will be going to 2 days. I wish more larger US shows would do this. With all the effort for dealers to set-up and pack up it makes sense and for those that have been to shows, know the day flies by and one can feel rushed depending on the size of the show.
This seems like it rivals some of the Airliner International shows and may be the AI of Europe!
We do not compete with AI, we are more partners who are trying to help eachother to keep the hobby alive and bring it to young people.
We will be in Phoenix to promote our 2021 show!

...seems like it is working if going to a 2 day show! Good to get younger ones into aviation. Gave a Braniff Aero Mini to a youngster at AI New Orleans a few years back. He didn't have enough money and as he walked away disappointed, I called him back to the table and gave the plane to him. From what I recall it was a NOS Mint Braniff Blue 727-100 in wedge style box. He was very appreciative and walked away with a smile on his face. Best part of it was seeing him walk away looking at a plane instead of a cell phone!
Too bad more show organizers don't promote their shows on here...some are just lurkers on the site!
This year we managed to get a whole group of young guys inside. We needed promotion via Instagram of course, but still.
Hope to see you in Phoenix? If you are there, come and say hi.
Cheers, Patrick van Rooijen
