Planning on being there Friday if the weather cooperates.

[MarkW]

I'll be there Friday but since the RV isn't finished yet I will be in the Citabria. I would like to stick around and see Team Dynamix but I don't think they are on till about 5pm. I'll be out of there by then.

I am thinking about going. Depends on the weather Friday.

We flew down last year (as we have done for several years), had breakfast at the FBO, then walked over to check out the expo. You have to pay an admission fee to enter the expo area - no biggie. While paying said fee, the staff asked if we flew in. Yes, ma'am, all the way from Tampa. We were then told that we also had to pay a landing fee, which I believe was another $10. KSEF does not normally have a landing fee, and had we just gone to the restaurant in the FBO and then left, we would not have had to pay the fee. It was only $10, but the principle of it bothered me - don't penalize those that fly in instead of walking up or driving there.

If they ask the same question this year, my response won't be as honest. I'll still sleep well at night.

Yep, we are planning on arriving prior to 0800 for that very reason. Possible ground fog up in our area might mess up that plan. The NOTAM has arrivals over Lake Jackson on the west side again this year. I will look for you tomorrow, Turbo.

I was there the same day as you & Carl last year. When they asked, I thought I was going to get a discount for flying in and not get dinged for $10. They have it all backwards.
