Thanks for chiming in Dale

Looks like some good interest for Dayton. The tourist and convention team in Dayton are really campaigning for SOAPA to hold the meeting in their city. They have been in contact with me for the past year. The Comanche group had their annual meeting there a couple years ago and really had a nice meeting and good time. Dayton is a great choice for the location and for the amount of aviation related history and interest in the area. It's not as attractive for vacations like Key West or the Bahamas but that's not what some SOAPA members are looking for. Some members have expressed more focus on the aircraft and it's systems rather than white sandy beaches. Dayton may make that focus easier.

The nomimations are officially closed and the voting will commence within a few days. Stay tuned and cast your vote.
