Just curious of anyone here from outside of Florida is planning on going to Sun n Fun? It's a major mission every year for Florida Wing as we do a huge recruiting/promo booth, crowd control and have traditionally handled the many ELT missions there every year.
If anyone is planning on going just as a spectator, let me know and we'd love to have you as a guest at one of our events during the show.
Air shows always seem to be scheduled in conjunction with national guard drill, i.e. a conspiracy that keeps me from air shows. And now that I'm eligible to retire in a few months, air shows are getting canceled. :-\
Just the military ones are being cancelled as far as I know. There are many more airshows besides military ones and IMHO the others are more enjoyable.
I was there working at our CAP DDR/Recruiting/FAA & Flightline area the last 3 days as a Senior Member with FL 466 based at the CFAA bldg at Lakeland-Linder. Was a great time for the cadets to practice with the rifles for drill, meet international cadets at the Meet & Greet on Thursday night and meet other Senior members.
