also the deadline to apply has passed.

I applied something around the secon day that NCSA applications came out. Good stuff, I really hope I can get in. Any suggestions from any members that have gone in previous years?

I have been the last two years and the pictures you see on the web really don't do the event justis.  It is very hard to think of all those aircraft coming to one place and then leaving in short period of time.  If you get to come, you will have a good time, once you recover that is  ;D

Those pictures also don't do justice to how crazy those flightline drivers are. Wait, was I not supposed to say anything about that. ;D

Apparently there are more benefits of going to Blue Beret than what NatCP tells you...

No rule against SM's but I still wouldn't recommend it.  Besides, as a SM there are plenty of oportunities to enjoy the activity that do not include the WB girls. :)

Shhh...what happens at NBB stays at NBB...and Packer's.

The Airventure website also has future dates, so you can pretty much count on NBB being wrapped about these:

2010: July 26-August 1
2011: July 25-31
2012: July 23-29

OK, so what gives?  To hear it told from NBB's side of the house, CAP is an integral partner with EAA Airventure.

But checking over the Airventure website, CAP isn't shown anywhere, listed as a participant, listed as an exhibitor or partner, and the only "Aux" listed is the CG.

The only mention I can find is that we're on the approved media outlet list and one mention tangentially related to someone getting an award.

So...um....

I also need some help, does anyone know were to get the packing list for SM's and the other info like transportation from appelton airport? If anyone can point me in the right track that would be great, thanks!

SM packing list is the same as the cadet list. If you don't have that, then contact the activity director who will help you out. As far as transpo. from Appleton, they should have a van running there to pick people up, just make sure that the activity director knows what time you arrive their and flight number. Hope that helps.
