I know its still a little early for decisions, but in reading Ryans decission to forgo Midland for Houston this year I was wondering if there is talk of cancelling WOH this year?

I haven't heard any yet... I talked to Tim Landers on Saturday and he was without power, but fine. Also, my decision about Midland wasn't so much about not wanting to go, but about my own personal time management. I would almost not go to Houston, but have a stronger draw there, having been asked to help out with the legends tent like I did last year, possibly having some L-bird vets, some relatives in the area (They moved there last year from Midland - so my lodging & transportation in Midland is gone) and having some friends to stay with. On an L-bird budget, things add up! Going to Midland, even with NO meal expenses, some free fuel for the L-2 in Midland (they took my card but never charged me! Thanks CAF!!!), and a place to stay, cost me over two weeks worth of my pay at the time!

I just heard that all LSFM Flight Operations have been suspended, so the Lone Star presence may be slim to none at Wings Over Houston this year.
