AWS meeting Amsterdam

[Maarten Otto]

Yesterday I was thinking if it would be nice to meet some AWS players in a relaxed environment while enjoying a beer on the terrace somewhere in Amsterdam or any other nice place in the Netherlands. During this meeting we can discuss all matters of the game, your goals, failures, tactics or any other things which turn up...

Please note it is a informal thing and it's only meant to meet some other players and have a enjoyable few hours with a beer in hand where everyone is welcome to join.

If a pub/terrace might be problematic due to age restrictions of some players please let me know so I can find another spot.


But before I'm going into all of this I have to know if there are people in the AWS community (preferably in the Netherlands) who would like to meet other players with a cold beer in their hands....

Yes, extremly selfish proposal, try to come up with something serious instead.
Why would it be worth to travel all across the world to discuss some Airwaysim? We have a forum here for such things.

What's wrong with organising something in your area for people living nearby? You could do exactly the same....

As a matter of fact... AWS won't be the main reason... it's just to meet other players and have a drink... that's all.

LOL I knew someone would say that, I am not a big fan of all that, just said it for a laugh.

Well... I live near Amsterdam And I NEVER tried that stuff... why should I? And what most people don't know... yes it is ILLEGAL here as well.

Mja, you're allowed to have 5 grams.

[Maarten Otto]

No officially your NOT. That Police won't do a thing if you have it or smoke it... that's another story

A conference would be cool. AMS isnt that bad since it is a major airport and we have lots of European members and AMS has good LCC connections. ORD or ATL could be another.

I'd love to see my wife's face when I tell her that I have to fly to a AWS 'convention'.  I'd permanently lose points with her.

Why? Isn't she going to Tupperware-Meetings or something like that?

LOL! The mother of a freind of mine is a tupperware sales(wo)man, and tells all the sh#t at these meetings

Anyways... I'd be in that but I'd come by train, since LH is too expensive (for me as student), and train is anyways faster for me
Any more exactly plans, like day/etc.? Thx.

I don't think my 16yrs is a prob in Nederlands... but just to notify you

[Maarten Otto]

Hi Jona... there are 7 direct ICE services a day from Duisburg (where you live) to Amsterdam.

[schro]

I do need to do something to keep my Platnium Medallion on Delta...

There's a great observation deck at AMS. Great views of all the KLM MD-11's :-)

A wee bump to the thread - I'm living in Amsterdam now so would also be happy to catch up with some fellow AWS players.

[MattDell]

I think that's a great idea, Maarten!  There's enough players in the Amsterdam area for a decent meetup (5-10 people).

Make it happen and let us know how it goes!

We kunnen dit topic ook in het Nederlands voorzetten?  Anyway, lijkt me gezellig om eens wat te doen!

(We could also just continu this topic in Dutch?  Anway, seem fun to do something with some players!)
