Ok, this is it! We're within weeks of our annual pilgrimage to ISAP and everything is falling nicely into place! Be there, or be square!

As I write, we're looking to have one of our best slates of guest presenters ever. From the famous Scott Kelby on Adobe Photoshop to Carolyn Wright on photography legal issues, we've got a line-up
that's gonna knock your socks off! These and the many other sessions we have planned are all designed for Q&A, so think ahead and be ready!

And the field trip day schedule is no less outstanding. We'll be starting the morning with breakfast at the National Museum of Naval Aviation and then several hours of open access to the museum proper. After that, we're off to the USAF Armament Museum for a tour and a Boeing-sponsored lunch. From there, we're off to a special tour of Hurlburt AFB and their Special Ops facilities and aircraft. Special Ops is equipped with some truly exotic flying machines, not the least of which is their new Bell/Boeing CV-22 and one of the world's most
effective aerial gun platforms, the Lockheed Martin AC-130H. They also have several Russian aircraft, including a Mil Mi-8 and an Antonov An-26, but I don't know yet whether they will be made available to us.

If you haven't gotten onboard already, it's not too late. Just send me an e-mail me and let me know you're coming. We're trying to get an accurate head count as soon as possible so the food caterers and bus folks can accommodate us. The hotel is another issue. Last I heard, all rooms were booked. If you're still looking for a hotel room, however, please let me know and I'll try and get word out to folks who might be interested in sharing.

See you in Pensacola!
