Yes, a capital idea isn't it. I will need to be sure that I can bid the time off but hey - Oshkosh! Never been there and what a show. Concorde made it one year and the guys had a ball. It might involve quite an admin load.... hmmm. Sorry took so long to get back, been distracted (about to move house) and busy up there (roster and family holidays/leave).

Why not plan an Aviation Bloggers COnference at next year's AirVenture event in Oshkosh. Sounds like we already have a half dozen folks who will join us.

I've been blogging aviation news (in several blogs) since early 2005. I'd love to meet with other aviation bloggers from time to time to shoot the breeze and share ideas. I have to admit that when I saw the title of Rob's post here, my heart sank. How was it that I didn't know about an event called "Aviation Blogger Summit" (!!) ahead of time?? Then I read the post and felt a little better, heh heh. If you decide to do another -- please let me know. I think it’s a great idea to have such a get-together, too.

It is probably time we tell the truth. You did pick up a fat check at the breakfast. In fact, I think you paid the check for all the food because I was broke. Well Norman.

In fact, I think you paid the check for all the food because I was broke.

It's a great idea and perhaps we should trot with it if not run? Your post prompted a small flurry of emails from some of my guests as well, one intimating that I may have picked up a fat cheque for being there! LOL - as if! No, we had a great time at our impromptu breakfast. As for the next venue, how about Oshkosh? Captive crowd giving a huge potential audience and a panoply of things to talk about. Beating the keys on a few of the ideas at the moment Rob, I am on holiday and need to look interested in stuff like Yoga and gardening before I can escape to my powered parachuting. More to come and thanks for a great couple of hours. Hey Rob, we seem to have started something here. It’s a great idea and perhaps we should trot with it if not run?

The interactive section is focused on web, blogging, communities, and the future of digital media. You can see their website by doing a Google search for "SXSW".

I was just wondering if we might gather up enough people for the next get together. Some private e-mails and yours make me think we do. Nice city, Austin. Stationed at Bergstrom when it was still just an Air Force base. Boy did the B-52s smoke on takeoff. What is South by Southwest? Thanks for this thought Matthew.

I would be interested in being part of this. Maybe we could do a break-out group at South-By-Southwest (SXSW) here in Austin (March 7th to 11th) where I live. I am an aviation blogger as well and think that we could all learn something from each other. Please let me know next year when you are going to have another meeting. Thanks!

You sent me an e-mail months ago that I never responded to. Obviously your point is well taken. One other flaw with all of this e-mail business is that we are not always as well organized as we think. I've added a "Yet To be Answered," folder on my desktop where I'm going to put notes like yours so they don't fall through the cracks again. Signed, Egg-Faced in Evanston Well am I ever standing here with egg on my face Bill.

I have writen you a number of times to receive some expert input on how to develop a better blog with never a return comment. As a technician in the aviation field I read your post's and receive a very elitist perception from the communication. Aviation has a number of talented individuals that enjoy the field and would enjoy communicating with each other, but the industry is filled with many persons that classify their status through their wallets and education. Maybe if we all try to view each other as professional sources our communication would imporove. Just a thought! W.M. Robert:
