John, The "Weekend of Heroes" or "US Airsoft Expo" will be held outside Pittsburg PA (Monroeville Convention Center) from June 8 and 9 (next weekend!) . Here is the link:
http://www.aweekendofheroes.com/ FOA will attend, as well as Steve Tyng from your Tank Group. Frank said he might make it, but might have some other obligations. We will bring four vehicles. Two of them are static (Sd.Kfz.251 Ausf.D Stuka Zu Fuss http://www.fieldofarmortanks.com/product_p/foa30004.htm and M16 Multiple Gun Carriage https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=324821730981461&set=a.253655331431435.64595.165372040259765&type=1&theater), one is RC with our completed MPSS Suspension System (Tiger I Ausf.E) and one is our "first attempt" to a combat vehicle (Panther Ausf.G with motorization and turret rotation). If you are coming, you may consider to bring your "combat vehicle". I would LOVE to see it and discuss about it See you then!
