Has anyone been there in the past? How big of a show is it, how many airplanes and vendors? Anyone has a schedule of events? I read it somewhere but can't find it anymore.

I've been to the last 2 or 3 shows. Van was there 2 years ago. Last year there were probably 30 RV's. No vendors to speak of. I've seen bigger RV fly-ins at Leeward and Love's Landing in Central FL.
 
Sebring, FL (KSEF) LSA airshow is this weekend if you guys are looking for something to do, over 125 vendors. I'd be there if I wasn't weathered in. :mad:

Last year's attendance, as someone else mentioned, was about 30 RVs due to the weather. I believe everyone who attended received a door prize donated by Vans and Sun-n-Fun. If the weather is anything like this weekend, it will probably be well attended. What a fabulous weekend for flying.
I will be finishing up my Phase 1 tomorrow. Had a fabulous time flying today. What a great airplane!
 
Thanks everyone!

I've got one of the club aircraft... but I also received confirmation that my EAA chapter will be flying 250-300 young eagles on the 20th so it look like I'll be giving them a hand instead of flying up to lakeland. There is always next year or other events to meet other FL builders.
 
Hi Paul,

You can attend the RV Fly-in Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. There are presentations Friday and Saturday, and meals Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
 
I'll be there on Sat. (I can't fly YE because the "Boy Scout of America" don't allow pilots with less than 250TT among other things).
