[Sep 20, Thu 5pm PDT] EAA demo (KSMO)

Post by Keith Smith »

Ryan and Brandon will be visiting what has to be one of the largest EAA Chapters in the nation. They'll be demoing to an audience of 150-300 pilots (yes, they really get that many pilots showing up each month...incredible), making this the largest demo we've ever done. After a brief presentation, they'll be conducting flights at Santa Monica (SMO).

We'd love to have 3-5 other aircraft in the pattern, although more is an option, of course...we'll make it work :)

Thanks in advance for the help, we had a great showing for yesterday's commercial demo and it made a big difference.

Perfect timing on the double post of this KS :D

That said: the demo aircraft will be N8029B, a C210.

See you all tonight!

My apologies, I am not sure where they are at this point. Last I heard, they were about 25 mins behind in starting the presentation due to the group that was before them. At this stage, though, I don't have an update.

Thanks to Adam, Alex Zayas (first time the network) and Vincent Meyer (again, 2 demos in a row) for coming out! Hopefully the pattern work was at least enjoyable. It's hard to have a bad time at SMO :)

Got the update, they weren't able to get a working net connection on the demo computer. Apologies for the false alarm.
