I had to read the date in the above post 3 times before I figured it out. First pass, I read it as 01 Nov 18, but since it was only posted today I realised that wasn't right. Then I wondered why they were asking for volunteers for next November. After finally catching on that 11/01 was 11 January, it made sense.

When I was with Boeing and dealing with airlines all over the world, I started writing dates in the format that would make this date display show as 11 Jan 19. Saved a lot of grief over my 28 years at the company.

Unfortunately, a 9-hour-each way transatlantic flight from Seattle or Vancouver to participate would be hard slogging. Good luck with the fund-raiser, NWAA.
