+Spectre_USA 7 Posted October 1, 2008 No one from hereabouts, but the ol' Virtual squadron, the BlitzPigs, have had some gatherings and debauchery. Met up with one of the Canuckian swine last month in his home in Canada, eh? Even had one fly me over the Sierras in his 450 horse Stearman bi-plane a couple years back...

DWCAce 19 Posted October 1, 2008 So far the only person the only person that I've been able to meet & greet has been Saggy (who used to frequent this site). He was an excellent host, showed Jen and myself around the ship, and I got totally tanked for the first time in a long time. I live in the same city as Tank, and if FDX ever sets up a decent RON trip, FC said he'd like to visit as well. There are two others in New England area (at least!) that I've talked to, MAKO69, and Whiteknight who are on the 'need to visit list'. and last but not least, I hope to make it to the CA BBQ next year :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caesar 305 Posted October 1, 2008 No one I know of, unless anyone here was an FTO, TI or CTA at MAXWELL 3 in Summer 07. And in that case, it probably wasn't the friendliest meeting either... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have met: 531_Ghost Storm Hrntfixr Fates FastCargo Crab_02 Hawker Wpnssgt And I can say all of them involved lots of simming, BBQing and alcohol. For awhile now, I have met few online buddies over the years. Mainly my former Aces High MMO Sim squad and 3 vets from Vietnam (Scooter pilot) and a WW2 pilot who served in both ETO and PTO and a chief on a carrier (I forget which now but served in 'nam). Hopefully I'll meet with Dave ;). Falcon Edited October 2, 2008 by FalconCAF Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JediMaster 451 Posted October 2, 2008 Haven't met anyone since the 90s, when I went to Las Vegas and NJ for a couple simming LAN meets. That was back in the days of Prodigy and CIS, pre-Internet. We flew Falcon 3, Air Warrior, and a little World Circuit: GP. I don't think I've seen a single one of those people I met there online for 10 years now.
