Default Luke AFB f-16 " Who wants to see them up close?"

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

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!!!!!!!

Count me in! Maybe on a Sunday that way it isn't so busy there at the base. Then we could BBQ at the white tank mountains over on that side!

Default OK I need help

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.
