Hi, everyone! The planning for M13 is underway, and this is just a quick announcement so you can set aside the time in your respective calendars. [:D] While at last year’s M12, I announced that our destination this year would be Nashville. Unfortunately, that venue was booked up more than a year in advance. (Yes, we’re now going to start scheduling Migrations and secure lodging more than a year in advance…) So, we regrouped and here’s the skinny: - **What:** COPA Migration 13 - **Where:** Addison, TX - a short distance north of Dallas, itself - **When:** Sept. 10, 2015 - Sept. 13, 2015. Most arrivals will be on Thursday, Sept. 10th. We’ll have our traditional COPA Cabana evening social event that evening. Core Migration activities will start on Friday, Sept. 11th with our Annual Meeting and continue through Saturday, Sept. 12th. Most departures will be on Sunday, Sept. 13th. - **General info:** - _Resort/Hotel_ - We have signed a contract with InterContinental Dallas (actually in Addison - check out [http://www.icdallas.com/](http://www.icdallas.com/) ). We managed to secure an outstanding room rate which should please everyone - COPA members and Exhibitors alike. And, they have the convention space to accommodate our tradeshow as well as the Annual Meeting, seminars, etc. - _1-stop shopping_. Several COPANs have already stayed at this facility and had great things to say about the place. - _Airport_ - Addison (KADS), a Class D airport just NE of Dallas/Ft. Worth (KDFW). Outside of the usual Class B considerations from nearby KDFW, flying in/out looks pretty straightforward. This is Texas, there’s certainly no terrain to worry about… - \*FBO \*- We’ll use Million Air; one of our members knows them personally and has already spoken to them. They have facilities we can use for possible classes and appear very willing to work with us. - Commercial air transportation - For folks travelling in “big iron”, DFW is the obvious and easy choice for a destination airport. We’ll provide more details as planning progresses. But, for now, please note the date. Blue skies, Craig --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.cirruspilots.org/t/migration-13-planning-is-underway/76238)._
