211 - ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

Good evening, weather aviation folks. Online registration for the Fall 2024 FPAW Meeting has now closed. And, guess what?

We have 211 registrants.

As Dickie V. might say, "Are you kidding me? Are you serious?" Well, yes, I am.

Let me now pivot to a couple bits of information that will help you 81 In-Person participants get the very most out of next week's gathering:

1. WiFi will be available within the WJHTC, but it's not your typical Guest Network sign-up. See the Visitor Information document for details.

2. If you intend to eat lunch in the cafeteria and pay by credit card, you'll need to eat big, because the minimum credit card charge there is $10.00. My advice - if you're on a diet, bring cash.

3. Merch. Who doesn't like merch? Fortunately for us, there's a Merch Store at the WJHTC. Even more fortunately for us, one of our FPAW colleagues, Jill Miller, has arranged to make sure that the WJHTC Merch Store will be open during the lunch hour all three meeting days. And, as a bonus, Jill has volunteered to "grab the key" and provide access even outside those hours. So, bring a few extra $$ for FAA mugs and WJHTC shirts! See the Visitor Information document for additional details.

P.S. You forgot to register. All you want to do is attend remotely. Your friends are telling you that this is going to be a "Must Attend" FPAW Meeting. What can you do? Well, I'm here for you. Send me an email at mfronzak@mitre.org, and with my Administrator superpowers, I'll figure a way to get you registered.
