I am past president of the International Cessna 195 Club, which, for non-pilots, is a "Type Club", meaning we all fly the same "type" of aircraft. Our membership numbers are based on the fact that they only made 1100 of them from 1947 to 1954. Many left the country, to AU and to Canada, and to Europe, but we do have conventions in the US as our membership is made up of, mostly, insane owners. Where to have these conventions? Well, that is an issue and is widely discussed as we must select locations that can handle 40-100 airplanes, plus lodging, plus space for banquet, plus has hangar for clinics, PLUS the following:

have some local interest things goin' on, PLUS is located where the membership is willing to fly. We did surveys of membership and have tried to address the geographic areas that had some favor amongst the membership.

BUT....one thing was clear, and even though California has the highest number of 195's in the US, our conventions will draw higher if they are located somewhere in the center of gravity of the US, and that ain't California, so we have them out west only maybe once in 10 years. Last one was at Chino, two years ago.

This year, the 70th anniversary of the Cessna 195, will be in Wichita, the birthplace, and will draw more planes, by far, than any previous convention on either end of the country.

It is a problem making everyone happy and I can see that. As for GMCMI, I will be at Shawnee (planning on it, anyway). Too easy to get there.
