Is the next debate on the 13th? I only have a 10k run scheduled for that weekend, so I might be up for having a beer or two.

Post meeting two awesome Threadsters tithe. WU and I had dinner with Steve, Lou and Andre at Steve's place and there are pictures to prove it.

Unfortunately, we had gotten up at 4:30am that morning to flee Chicago so our energy didn't last as long as I could wish.

But the highlight of the evening was definitely Lou's cooking. Wow what an amazing dinner! Thank you guys for an awesome time!!!

I've shared meals with Steve and Lou as well as Andre, but not together.

I agree on your assessment that they are all quality people.

Now, I guess we'll need to plan a trip to SoCal to catch up with you, Yuri.

On the topic of summits, it looks like there will be 3 Threadsters sharing a brew on the 16th, as Torsten and Andy (NCSUForrest) will both be here.

Absolutely. You have a standing invitation to our place....as soon as we find one.

I hope that I can offer you two a nice guest room for the next time under the same conditions that Mike offers: "whenever you want, for how long as you want!"

Hi all,

Yes - pictures please!

BTW, why Swedish?

Leo "Apollo11"

The first pics are up. More will follow as I get time and it's safe to take them, couldn't get any from today as it's not recommended to mess around near AVGAS too much with mobile phones

The books are partly in Swedish as some of the parts books were recovered after the Swedes finished with their PR.XIX Spits. By that time the RAF had pretty much got rid of the publications for the type.

After a 4 year hiatus from WITP I've now owned AE @ 2 1/2 weeks. I still need to get a better handle on a couple of the new things, but the AI's already boring me. Probably time to pick up a PBEM or two, but it would be good to also retain some kind of life.
