In my Departure Briefing booth I listened to an RV driver complain about the long walk from 'the cemetery': perhaps we could get a tram just for the HBC area like Ultralights have?

That started me thinking of my own HBC experiences. How about gates north and south so we can access food and drink without excessive treks? How about a designated 'tent area' for those pilots with aircraft on the flight line? Maybe we could put resources in the middle of the HBC area (e.g. showers, a 'salad cafe', etc.). Could we put banners or flags out there to give us direction in finding the experimental aircraft we're interested in? And those beer mugs...can we get them in 'light weight' form? Maybe EAA could find a double walled stainless steel beer mug that weights less than ten pounds...

My favorite moment this year was listening to my best friend talk to the P2 warbird owner about the plane that found his dad (e.g. USS Indianapolis). Cheers to all.
