Default East Central Florida Destinations/Events

Hey all,

I have recently relocated my plane to Flagler (KXFL) and am curious about the local destinations or events.

I know that there are several fly-ins this weekend 3/15 and 3/16 (Wahoo, Shamrock and Timeless Wings) Not sure which one do to? Are there other RV happenings?

I plan on joining and attending EAA 288 out at Spruce Creek next week.

Suggestions?..

Tony, Welcome to the area. I am not aware of any RV specific events. Other than what you listed there are:

DeLand EAA 635 breakfast (near runway 23) on the 15th.

TICO airshow (TIX):http://www.vacwarbirds.org/

Some of the Spruce Creek RVs will go to EVB for the Timeless Wings & Wheels, the rest will scatter. I am out of town and will not be back until later. Hope to see you on Thursday night at the EAA 288 meeting.

This weekend is the TICO warbirds air show in Titusville.

Two weekends from now is the New Smyrna Beach Balloon & Sky Fest www.balloonandskyfest.com -- an all weekend fun time with two day and 2 night air shows.

These are not fly-ins per se but are fun events..
Watch for TFRs if you're flying around here.

Is that really a good one? I looked at their website and didn't see much. That looks like a destination my wife would like?
