[WWI] Columbus Nats

[Dave Calhoun]

Hi Karen, that was me with the black Nungesser shirt, although I stayed
around the WW1 table for a while moved around a lot to see all the great
stuff!
Buz, sorry I missed you since I should have recognized you from your
Facebook picture, can't believe we were in the same place 2 days in a row
but didn't cross paths.  We did not stay at the hotel downtown, we were in a
quality inn about 10 miles outside of Columbus so we saved some money but
might not have been worth it! I'm not sure if it was a modeller that broke
into the car/truck (a Ford Edge that we rented) but someone thatsaw some bag
with a big box (sealed Titanic kit) and since every moron knows what the
titanic is figured it might be worth some money... well not a big deal,
repaired all the damage except the Nieuport will have to be re-rigged
eventualy. Like I told my friends, must be a sign from above not to do 1/72
scale since the two 1/48 models were almost unscathed :)
Hope to see all at a later date!
Dave

    Dave, I'm sorry to hear that your vehicle was broken in to and had
damage to your models.  Did you have you vehicle parked in one of the
parking garages from the hotel?  On Friday and Saturday you and I must have
passed each other without even knowing it.  I was at the USAF museum of
Friday and the 94th Aero restaraunt on Saturday as well.

    Karen, it was great seeing you again and congratulations again on your
"Pigeon Bus".  All in all I thought the show was great and WW1 was well
represented.  The list members that I saw were: John Huggins, Dame Karen,
Mike Robinson, Mike Moore, John Ratzenberger, Brian Nicklaus, Bill Powers,
and Tom Morgan.  If I forgot someone, I'm sorry.  The MICHAEL L. FRITZ award
was won by Harvey Low of Toronto, Canada for his 1/72 scale PEGASUS kit of
the VICKERS Gun Bus.

Buz
