This is a great event.  You do have to be a member of the Phantom Society.  But going to AMARC in 2005 was great.

Yeah it a great time but always during the middle of the week.  That is sort of what my Dad does.  He comes with me since I am a member.

Well I stopped by Luke AFB yesterday and got a few shots (at least 160) of Vipers landing.   Thanks Keith for being my aviation OnStar.  Today I am going to go to Avra Valley to see what they got.  Phancon registration starts today and a breifing tonight.  Free internet here too (15mins at a time)  Cool.
