    That's certainly a good idea. I plan to fly recreationally while accruing hours, though eventually want to transition to a 2nd class. I am sincerely hoping that when the AMCD physician on-staff reviews my file, s/he will decide to grant me a standard 3rd. If this is not the case, I will follow...

    First time at Air Venture - Coming from Florida

    I would highly recommend camping, even if you're not a big camper! That is how you receive an authentic experience! Definitely important to wear sunscreen! I learned that lesson the hard way last year when I had blistering sunburns. It was overcast the whole time and the sun still got me good!
