I’m in 547. The very last row before the road. That’s what Fisk at 7:10 AM Saturday gets you these days I guess.

A few collapsed tents around me by Friar Tucks, but seems like most people are fine. I have a broken, now dangling static wick, which confuses me. I didn’t think a storm could do that.

Where are these located? Asking for a friend.

Can I come out of my tent now?

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but part of the problem is the seeming unwillingness at times to keep arrivals moving as fast as they can. Another contributing factor is the mass arrivals process that has created reserved spots for anyone who wants to join. You have to get to the show early enough...

Bought an airplane in late June 2016. Went that year and have been every year since.

I’d be happy with a band that does Eagles covers and travels around in a Piper. Maybe one who has a YouTube channel dedicated to it.

Ah got it. Wonder if they had agreed to sponsor but pulled the plug on a tent this year.

Where are you seeing that? I don’t even see them listed in the app.

They aren’t listed as an exhibitor in the app this year.

If I want to volunteer on the vintage flight line again, do I just show up at the building on Saturday after I get my plane tied down in GAC?

Is the SA doing bikes again? They stopped a couple years ago and had no idea if they would start again.

That dark room stuff is pretty nice. Keeps it cool and dark.

They usually don’t cutoff HBC. If you plan to slum it with us riff-raff in the north or south 40, there’s a chance they run out of space early in the week for a few days.

I increased it slightly but have kept it at what I think is replacement cost. Interesting response from Avemco this year (who was 3X everyone else) was that they wanted it even higher. They had a number they came up with as value and told me it couldn’t be less than that. I asked the agent to...

Vintage camping and parking can usually accommodate everyone that qualifies. Last year they did have to put some VAP across the burn line, so you couldn’t be at your plane during the airshow.

I refuse to believe 2015 was 7 years ago. That would make me older than I want to be.

A lot of it has to do with the government/fund accounting that a lot of these airports use. It makes it really hard to make any long term project make any financial sense. Add to that some inane rules on ground leases (my home airport said the best they could do was 10 years) and it’s hard to...

I like the pack button. Sometimes I want to see what a flight to some faraway land will take - time and fuel. I don’t want all the notams and weather for that. If I am actually going to take the flight I planned, I want a pack button to make sure I got everything I needed.

Have I been doing procedure turns wrong? Establish outbound, standard rate 45 degree turn, 1 minute, standard rate 180 degree turn the other way, and intercept the course? All these 5T, omega scan, etc things are good to have in your bag of tricks, but don’t overcomplicate things. It’s hard to...
