BTW the link that MEAT had in that very first post won't work.
Pilot's not gonna let anyone rappel out of the bird. We asked last year with a bunch of guys who are rope-qualified with a bunch of time in the CF. Short answer - not gonna happen. The bird is for insert/dustoff only.

Well, like I said A. its a 206 L2 from what I could see ((There was four seats in the rear wasn't there? Gonna have to recheck, but I know its not the L3 because the landing struts are too narrow and the cargo compartment is too short (((under the tailboom))) )) the craft wouldn't be able to support people dangling from it with out proper balance rigging. Or you'd have to perfect balance two repellers at the same time. As well its not the best platform for head room. And I did state it was hypothetical ((sp?)) and that I knew the pilot would say no, hell I would say No, and my uncle doesn't let me near his Pawn-E no more because that aircraft is MUCH more manueverable than he'll let on

With enough people pre-registered for up-front cash, CT also has the ability to get a Huey....the answer is/was still no.

Yes, it would be nice to have this confirmed asap as many of us need to get our travel & time off requests in soon. Many are probably at the point of no return as far as booking time off goes. The signup forums for Keystone are still down and no replacement has been posted up anywhere that I've found.

There's only 4 months to go until August Long guys. We need a place to do sign ups!

KS2.5 is in the works. When the details get finalized (with the next few weeks) a new thread will be created.

Well if that were the case,then i guess no one would attend any game.
We still need to have a fixed date so we can commit time.I will not cancel until there is no game to play.Thats for sure. Alot of people are asking in Calgary, big time. But I guess I'm pesturing because alot of doubt is starting to shadow over people on this game.Just give us a place to sign up and I'm in :-D

Well, that is the case. And for some reason people are still attending games....

Do you even know what happened last year? The field got flooded and the game was cancelled. All I was trying to say is that nothing is for sure because of some things we can not control. You're post doesnt really make much sense.

August long weekend would be a good bet to book off for what has floated around in the past.

Is there any support for airsofters in the farther provinces who wish to attend? Group road trips perhapse? anything is good I guess. Even if I have to help organize it. Which I honestly don't want to do unless there is a large ammount of support. Of course safety and legal issues are always a big concern as far as these things go.

I would rather NOT travel by plane with all of my gear.

We honestly need an airsoft convention.

Guys, timing the release date of an event like this is critical. If you start it off too soon it's just as bad as if you let it out of the bag too late.

It'll come, and it will be great. Just keep it stirring.
