IMHO this is an absolute "must do" during your flying career. Call Daytona approach as you get closer and they will coordinate with NASA tower. Then overfly at 500 or above (nobody can tell how high you really are as long as your tires do not touch the ground) at the slowest GS possible just to see how long it takes you to go down the 15,000ft runway. NASA tower is open from Monday - Friday.
KFIN to KEYW via KTTS
From Kitty Hawk (KFFA) to Flagler County (KFIN) is just under 3hrs in an RV. Drive up to St Augustine, the oldest city in the US, then head to Key West (KFIN) the next day. From Flagler County to Key West takes just over 2hrs in an RV so very doable.
FWIW
AVGAS at KFIN is currently $2.92/Gal and it has the best airport restaurant (Highjackers) anywhere.
