[QUOTE="HaulinAshe, post: 299645, member: 1875"] I think my primary concern is the typical time period it takes for someone to "come up missing". Very, very few of us actually manage to call home and say "Hi Dear, I'm at the hotel" within a few minutes of arrival. Instead, there is typically a delay of several hours or even a day or so before our ICE contact receives that phone call. Just seems that there might be people who would benefit from someone at least questioning why they have not arrived as planned within an hour or two of scheduled arrival. I used the term flight plan because that's the exact model of the idea. And just so you know, if I was to learn that anyone attending EOM was extremely overdue, I'd personally be making some phone calls and attempting to retrace your route. It's what we do for one another, right? My brother would miss me if I had not called in two or three weeks. :) In my specific case, I don't want my daughters being the ones questioned about my whereabouts. I have enough people riding with or meeting along the way to EOM for it not to be much of an issue this time. Just thinking that having some mechanism in place at group events might be worthy of some effort. Again, thinking out loud. Pardon my rambling. [/QUOTE]
