My Comments: Another save-the-date. This is becoming a rather long-standarding troop for us! Usually we do this in two shifts of 2 hours or so with an hour lunch break in the middle. 2019 had an extremely high turnout and I'd love for us to match that in 2020. :)

Im interested in joining you lovely CTG folks for this. Listed as a maybe for now until the date gets closer. Unsure of my April 4th plans this far out.

Maybe me and @Swiftcloud can take turns in the pilot seat of Slave 1???

This sounds so awesome. I am going to try and keep this on my radar, but with a newborn and it being 2 hours away from me I can't promise anything.??

Probably coming down from NH in my TIE kit for this, as will my wife in her X-Wing (I'll get her to register here this week).

Quick question: is the event itself fairly kid-friendly? We may want to bring my two boys (as guests, not troopers, naturally) and switch off walking around with them, if possible. If not, I'll start working on finding babysitting for them.

Looks like you need a Rey for this (she is technically a pilot is she not ;))

Hi, I'm a newbie from the NEG, and I've signed up to come along.?? I'll hopefully have an ANH TIE Pilot approved by then, but if not I'll be there as a TIE Reserve. This looks like a ton of fun!?? I grew up an Air Force brat, and I absolutely love air & space stuff.?? :D

I'll be there, this year I'll have my Rogue One Blue Squadron X-Wing Pilot rather than a Jedi.

Kendra is planning to wear Inferno Squadron Iden Versio, assuming it's approved/day passed. Helmet should arrive any day now!

Newbie question - what happens if multiple people with the same character want to go?

Hmm. That's a great question! I'd be more than happy to switch to my Connix! I should have the jacket by then, so I should be at least able to daypass her!??(Sorry for the late response by the way)

No prob. Thanks for the offer!??If you???re willing to switch, that???d??be awesome. But no worries if you can???t. ??Let me know whenever, I don???t need to plan very far I advance.??

If this event does go forward, I should hopefully get my Connix jacket sometime this week or next week, so crossing my fingers I get to debut her!??
