Since not everyone can be here in Houston, I thought I’d share some pictures as the weekend goes along.
This morning, some of us attendees took a field trip to Johnson Space Center. This is the astronaut training facility, where astronauts are trained on certain procedures on what they call "low fidelity mockups:
Here is an orbiter mockup mounted on a real 747 used to ferry the orbiter:
The business end of a Falcon 9 rocket:
More to come. If anyone else is here, feel free to share pictures.

So far the biggest release / announcement is the DoubleEnder by GotFriends.

Looking forward to this next announcement, which will be a home cockpit one. Have no idea what it is, but I’m really curious.

Assuming we’ll get the announcement and release of the new Famous Flyer during the MS event. And an explanation of the “July surprise.”

I’ll try to link to the video later, if it’s available and someone else hasn’t. It’s an extraordinarily high-fidelity experience for those of us who fly GA.

Some pictures of the room where the announcements are taking place. It’s a sold-out house today.

I see many empty seats. Thanks for the reports and have fun. Events like this help keep the FS energy alive.

There are, but they sold out of tickets to the event. Also, there are people hanging out in the hallways not inside the ballroom.
