This was a terrific event. It was great to see a couple of people I had "met" here. Mike was doing a yeoman's job to get people interested in WOFF and seemed to be succeeding too. I don't know how much of the rest of the show he saw (if any). Personally, it was great to see the planes, vendors, and we even managed to see a couple of the main museum galleries. I'll have to keep an eye out for the 2024 event.

Yes, had a great, but tiring, time at the Dayton show this year.
We were pretty much non-stop, from 9am to 5pm on Friday and Saturday.
I figure we had around 300 Adults and kids exposed to flying and WOFF, on the two systems I brought.
I distributed and entire box of WOFF Business Cards - hopefully this will turn into a few sales.
My daughter, Ashley, was of immense help and I could not have done this without her.
She listened and watched what I did for the first few and then took off running with it.
At many times running both systems while I was talking to attendees.

It is a great time to expose people who have not flown before to flying a simulator.
Some flyers had the full combat experience, some just did take off and landing, some were in cockpit view, some did external views.

Hopefully this event will happen again in 2024, it would be really great to have one or two more systems there.
I hope some forum member will consider this, might five me a chance to get out and enjoy a tiny bit of the air show.

This year we had our own 20x20 tent.
Here are some pictures I managed to find time to take.

A big thank you to RAF28Jenks, mandrews and MajorMagee for showing up.

Best regards,

Stache.
