Don't know what events you have attended, However the YAK and CJs for the most part are given great parking, the exception was Sun N Fun this year due the rain everyone suffered. On arrival display a sigh Approx. 8 1/2 x 11 to the ground handler the sign should indicate in bold letters, WB /S. this will indicate that you are a Warbird & that you will be on static display. You will then be directed to the proper location. Looking forward to seeing you there.

Hey Guys !
Im planning to fly my Yak 52 to OSH for the first time this year. I understand that there is some special festivities this year and show center parking for the CJ and YAK community. Is that correct? Im a RED STAR member and would hope to be able to have static dispaly parking with the rest at the rock star location instead of the mud pasture that is the usual YAK locaiton. Do I need a window sign to park show center with the others?
This is a sensitive issue to me, as I have battled this parkign issue for my L-29 Delfin Jet every year. I pay 2,500 to $3,000 in fuel to come and I am offered virtually every year parking that is outside the the area that the vistors are allowed to go and thus nobody is able to look at my aircraft. That a lot of money to spend to find yourself totally removed from the activites. I guess that the T-6 and T-28 community just need more and more parking.

Well, I finally have a quote from the FBO at ETB, $5.69 retail price with NO discount. Reason given was that we will be using more staff for frequent refueling vs transit traffic that takes larger loads, this also means more transactions, etc. even though 1 scan of the card when we come in is enough. Something about the 2% credit card transaction fee, etc. Besides, we will have the use of their 4-passenger Sunfire loaner on Thursday and Friday as long as an incoming jet does not need it. the FBO owner also has an operation at Fon du lac where there certainly will be a large captive audience.
OTOH,the Burrows aviation FBO at Sheboygan(SBM) has invited us over for free lunch on the weekend and $5.20 fuel. Also visiting SBM will be the T-28's at the other FBO. They were there first at SBM and are the reason why we are not staging there. I understood their concerns about crowded Quote: |
