Re: So, who's ready for 2014?

No one is asking for the daily schedule yet there must be a general outline; e.g. how many shuttle missions, any Orion missions (I hope not unless the bugs have been fixed), Aviation Challenge, UAT, Marshall tour, parachute water landing, movies, museum time, etc. How hard can it be to add a day to ...

Re: So, who's ready for 2014?

That's what they told me when I called, i.e., the 4 day has one more mission. Question is, shuttle or Orion? They suggested that the rest of the day might be more museum or lecture time. I keep asking for a schedule as I want to manage my expectations. No response yet... I would hope that they pull ...

Re: Toxic team members

I read their blog and thought that it was fine. The biggest thing in coming to camp is expectations and certainly, one expectation for a first timer is a good night's rest. That one is blown the first night when you find out that the Hab is noisy and never is quiet, even when it's adults only. I'm u...

Re: STA news

I tried to post this at Collectspace but they've yet to send me my password.

It is simple math: 10 times the donors needed at $25 a patch vs. $250 to raise $70,000. If one assumes a net of $20 per donor vs. $200, then the donors needed are 3,500 vs. 350. Is there the demand for 3,500 patches?

Re: STA news

They may sell them later once the fund raising campaign is over yet they need to keep its value high for now. I am not surprised at the price considering you get the patch, T, poster, bumper sticker, and key ring. The idea is to raise funds. I am sure that everything over the value of the items is t...

Re: Pre-modern Sims

Unsure if this has been mentioned anywhere but when the train cars at AC arrived, one had a B-52 cockpit sim in it.
