For all the first timers, just remember to follow directions and don't screw up!
I was lucky enough to score the night off... so I'm heading out before the sun comes up after all. See you guys out there.

OK, so where is this place with the hay bales? I think I saw it when I was there in March for the show, but how do I get there?

What's everyone's plans for before hand? I know there is some talk about Ihop, but for me this is some of the best shooting all year, so i plan to spend almost all my time at or around the base
Last year i drove out the west side of the field and didn't think the shooting was that great from over there. It looks like a great spot, but most of the time nothing came far enough down the runway to get a decent shot. Decided to go over to the east side of the airport to the corner of Aten (I actually work with his great grandson) and John Finn. This is the money spot (although i'm sure most already know this). So this is where i plan to do most of my outside shooting for the morning. Can't wait, see you guys there!

So yeah, there was plenty of time for the briefing yet we still had people deciding they had to run to the restroom. Like a bunch of friggin 3rd graders. That's why she encourages it, because she can see how stupid people are and you can't put it past them to get out to the runway and go "uh oh"...
We will have the opportunity to use the head on base before we get on the bus, it's not like we're going to get on base and then get right on the bus. There's a safety briefing, and it takes awhile to get everyone loaded up. As a matter of fact, Michelle, the PAO, gives us time to run to the restroom, she encourages it.
