Hey Margie, how come no left coasters were invited? How much did Jay
have to pay for the invite? :-)

Sounds like a very cool event by the way. The Smithsonian, particularly
the air and space museum and Udvar-Hazy center are on the list of places
I need to go.

Well, Jay was invited because when I dug deep down and tried to think of
the all American flying family Jay and Mary (and kids) were the picture
in the dictionary. Any left coaster who might want to make it next time
(next June??) can email me at nataliem@ NOSPAM si.edu and I will start
keeping a list for next year. East coasters as well! The thing is if
you come in you don't really get to SEE the museum, you become part of
the museum for the day. I don't have plans or approvals for the next
one, but the administration was very happy with the first one :-). In
conjunction with the fly-in our public programs coordinator, Gloria
Fulwood, put on a first class family day (she also made all the
arrangements to get our pilots fed!).

Keep them cards and letters coming,

Margy
