I am a crew chief at Luke AFB. I was thinking of organizing an event to roll out in mass to the base and do a field trip see the F-16's up close. Maybe even have our scions on the flight line to take pics with the jets.
First I need to know how many people would want to. No dates are confirmed I need to see how big this is gonna be before making the arangments. Also this is the first event I will have done so any tips are appriciated. We could make it a half day event with BBQ the sky is the limit.
If you reply please just let me know how many including yourself you would be bringing. I'm thinking SEPT or OCT ish
Personally I think a shot of a bunch of scions around an F-16 would be bad @ss

You're really gonna try to get all that done??? good luck with that, getting the people in maybe, but the cars...that's a lot of people to talk to to get that done. but hey if you got the time and initiative...go for it, Excellence In All You Do hahahaha(I'm also at Luke)
Unfortunately I must agree, it will be tough to get all of us in. Hey, I'm down for trying anything though. I think the picture with the F-16's would look great. I could get a nice size one and frame it for my dad. He is a retired Captain and career AF man. He would love it. Count me in!!!!!!!
i would really like to do this. I have a friend in Prescott at Embry Riddle that said i would be able to take my tC into one of the hangers but now is saying i can't so this would be a great substitute.

Here is the deal. As you all read above this is going to take alot of strings pulled. To pull those strings I'm gonna need numbers. I can't go to the PA and say hey I have 5 people who wany to take a tour of the base and take pics by the ACFT. I need to come at them with some pretty solid numbers so It will be on a Sat or Sunday no dates set, hoping for Sept, Oct. now I need your attention on this.: Do not reply unless you are seriously planing on showing. When you reply I need a head count. that is all no suggestions, no talk just serious replies.
Example:
I will Go, joe4simp +3
This way I can get an acurate count on how many I need to press for flight line passes. Realistically I don't know about the cars by the F-16 , but you will defanatly be able to come on base on a little tour then to the flightline for picturesof and with the ACFT.
So when you respond please give me a acurate count and when I touch back in like 2 weeks on this I'm gonna count and then press on.

It would be Danica + 1...let me know the date for sure. I am singing in weddings both months back home, so I want to make sure that I am here for the event. Sounds exciting!!
