Tommy, I promoted the 92, 97 and 2002 flying to Oshkosh as a KR event. It was hard to fly back in 97 but I thought it was important and in 2002 it was actually a fun event. I went as well in 2003 to help out Steve and to show the KR on the flight line. I have had several things come up at work in recent years that have prevented me from going. With that said, I am planning on going again in 2007 assuming I'm still able to pass my medical and I'm not off sailing. I think we should start talking up 2007 at this KR Gathering to try to outdo the 20 +/- KR's we had there in 1992. It would be a fun event.
Keep flying and I look forward to seeing everyone at the Gathering.
