I too agree with Dan that Sept should be eliminated. Why have we not spoken of early Spring when everyone is excited about good flying weather after long dreary winter. Some of the best flying weather I have experienced has been early Spring. Just a thought. Let's all chip in their ideas and see what the consensus is.

I have now flown to 4 gatherings and this was the first time that I was able to go to and from the gathering without incident. However, it was not without great concern as we had just had the worst hurricane in my lifetime and were being threatened by another one that is still sitting off the coast. We had to check often each day to be sure that we would be able to get back home and never knew if we were going be able to stay for the duration of the gathering. I do not understand how it can possibly be the general consensus that we continue to have this event during one of the worst times of the year for flying. I have always thought that this should be open for debate but it has always been dictated and that is something I also do not understand. See you in Mt. Vernon - 2005 - KR Gathering See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building has expired. Daniel R. Heath - Columbia, SC -------Original Message------- General consensus was to hold the 2006 Gathering in late September, probably the last weekend, but I'll wait to get input from anyone interested in e-mailing me at my e-mail address above with their input. _______________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to krnet-le...@mylist.net please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html
