That’s true

What’s going on is lots of back chatter, but know one has directly confirmed, so we don’t have numbers

What we need Bob is instructions on when the ground exhibits need to / should arrive, what gate and how they get processed in, departure times and grounds location

Meals ?

Once this is known, we can distribute

Thanks
Nick

Bob and Nick

The questions are out there for attendees at the airport - report times at the gate; pass information; show line location; camping; overnight storage; on site feeding arrangements (ie meal tickets or feed ourselves?); show organizers expectations of HMV operators; etc

Can the two of you correspond on this.

CWC pers will get our orders through other channels.

AND MY RESPONSE...

It seems to me that expanding the airshow from one to 3 or 4 days may have exceeded their administrative capacity.

The total lack of follow up from the January invitation with any kind of information, reminder, tentative plans, etc. seems to indicate a poorly orchestrated affair...... unless you are WITHIN the flyboy circuit.

At this late date to have NO information confirmed on key question for vehicle demonstrators / re-enactors is very worry some....... 10 days before the event....7 working days before the event ......if no financial plans have been made for extra security of vehicle overnight, no portable potties or wash station, no additional food arrangements .....................all complicated by no registration number of attendees to establish numbers and projected costs because NO one bothered to beat the bush and encourage people to attend................. sound to me like too little too late and a prefect receipt for frustrating military vehicle re-enactors and reinforcing that they are just lumpy gravy to the airshow.

All we need now is to have the QPP show up and check on all the driven Quebec registered army vehicles for invalid registration of the said vehicles after the deadline date of August 23rd 2019 or all Quebec vehicles trailered to the event with out the mandatory "parking" plate registration properly affixed.

So much potential, such a great idea .......... so little thinking!!!!!!!

So like the loosing football team..... there is always next year.

Sadly that is "IT" for me.
