Subject: | Re: The 2008 "60th Anniversary" Fly-In |
Hi Gil,
We are all most grateful to you for helping and I'll get a list to you
later on.
To all the volunteers:
Each Monday, circa 3pm here, I get an up-date from an Air-Britain member
on any changes that have been made to the FAA Register.
Therefore, I will process the changes for last week as soon as I can
after receipt of the file.
I will then make the necessary extracts and get the files off straight
away.
A change to the plan is proposed, which you can of course ignore!
I'll send all the owners from the States you have volunteered for.
Then, if there are any where I haven't got a 'phone number, but the name
"jumps out at you" and you can find a number in your phone directory,
then all well & good.
In such cases, if you could then advise them to me I will suitably
up-date my Owners Database.
Again, sincere and grateful thanks to you all.
Very Best Regards,
Barry

Partaking in this exercise could seriously damage your Telephone Bill.
The instigator of the files takes no responsibility for errors in the
phone numbers that will be given.
Beating me around the head at the Fly-In for wasting your time will not
be tolerated ;-)

Nico was listening. See if what I have done is sufficient. Let me know if
any changes are necessary. As more information becomes available, I will
make the text clickable and open a separate page with all the info and
perhaps an application which I will then automatically send off to the
organizing committee. (:-D)
Thanks
Nico

Ladies & Gentlemen,
I know that September 18-21 seems a long way ahead but, believe me, it will
be upon us all in next to no time.
It certainly isn't too early to consider ways "we" can help Capt. JimBob in
ensuring that the 60th Anniversary event will be the best-attended one ever.
The nature of the occasion certainly means that it ought to be.
Firstly, one way to help will be by word of mouth.
If you have another Commander owner on your airport, or one known of nearby,
surely it cannot be too much trouble to find the owner and talk to him about
the Flight Group and the event.
Of course, it will be best to have full details of Membership and fees etc.
to hand, but they're not then the lead can be followed-up.
Secondly, when I visit the FAA Records Center after the Fly-In each year,
one thing I do to up-date my database, is to record details of the
Commanders that have changed hands since my previous visit.
This includes any telephone or other contact details that may be in the FAA
paperwork.
Therefore, if anybody is willing to make some telephone calls, I can 'pull'
any records from my database for any given State, where I have a Telephone
number.
Included in what I send will be the aircraft Serial Number; 'N' number and
the date they acquired their Commander.
Enough detail to let the Owner know that we do know something about them and
they are important!
Of course, there is always the chance that the person you phone knows about
the event already, but it gives you both a chance to chat about Commanders
anyway, so the call isn't wasted!
Thirdly, I hope Nico is "listening", as the "aerocommander.com" website
needs to trumpet the event, LOUDLY and in no uncertain fashion.
Necessary details ought to be on the 'front page' without the need to click
to a link.
Then, there could be a link to the "nitty-gritty" details.
(Nico: on the front page, "entusiasts" needs amending to "enthusiasts").
Lastly, I think we ought to try and get some media coverage to publish the
event.
I have made a very rough draft of a News Item that "we" could submit to
various magazines etc.
What I'm not sure of though are the best places to approach.
I'm sure you will all know which sources are more likely to be read by
Commander owners.
I'm sure that Capt JimBob will be busy enough already and will welcome help
in making this event a truly memorable one.
I'm sure that nobody truly understands what goes on, months in advance, to
make these Fly-Ins happen, so if we can all "do our bit" to help, we will
all benefit at the end of the day.
Any comments or other ideas will be welcome !!
Very Best Regards,
Barry
