| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to episode 233 of Avtoc. I am Ian Petchnick here as always with... |
| 0:17.0 | Jason Erbeno, it's and Ian good to talk to you back on the computer microphone thingy after spending so much time with you and so many other people in person last weekend. |
| 0:27.4 | That was the most fulfilling trip I have had in a while. I came away from Dorcfest and Spot Aleax. I don't want to say with a new |
| 0:37.1 | lease on life, but certainly a reinvigoration of my Avge geek spirit. It was just such a fantastic weekend with so many people. I think |
| 0:49.1 | Brett Schneider counted the the raffle tickets that we handed out and there were over 450 participants so including |
| 0:56.1 | the NYC Aviation Spot LAX events it had to have been over 500 people and I'm pretty sure I talked to almost each and every one of them. |
| 1:05.3 | Yeah, what struck me the most is that there were a ton of people. Most of the people I |
| 1:10.0 | spoke to who introduced themselves or I talked to were there for the first time this year which I thought was really interesting. |
| 1:16.7 | A lot of people I said, oh, did you, were you here last year or before COVID? |
| 1:19.9 | They go, no, this is the first year I'm here and actually a lot of them heard about the whole |
| 1:25.3 | event cranky Dorfest and NYC the whole weekend through us actually last year and |
| 1:30.8 | we didn't give them enough heads up to go last year so they only came this |
| 1:34.9 | year so maybe we'll give you a six month countdown and a three month countdown to |
| 1:40.0 | book your flights and we'll be more on top of it but it was really awesome to meet so many people |
| 1:44.5 | so many of you listening right now somebody young people too we have to keep the |
| 1:49.6 | hobby and the interest going and people younger than Ian and myself |
| 1:54.0 | because we're old and we need the kids to be interested in aviation |
| 1:58.0 | and it seems like that's coming along nicely. |
| 2:00.0 | Speaking of kids, I thought the most impressive person that we met all weekend is a young man of about |
| 2:08.1 | 14 years old and... |
| 2:10.1 | Oh, so it's not me, all right. No, you were impressive in your own right, Jason. Thank you, but go on. But this young man, he's 14 years old, Dorcfest and Spot LAX, for those that are listening, I I guess to this is their first episode. |
| 2:23.7 | Real quick recap. |
