Where is everyone planning on camping? Homebuilt Camping looks like a long
way from all the action. I'm thinking about parking at Homebuilt on the
flight line and camping by the lake or under Mike Munn's 170 wing. What is
everyone else planning on?
The 309 chapter of EAA is having a get together for dinner at 6:00 PM on
Thursday night at the "Corn Roast". I'm sure they won't mind if I invite
everyone in SERV. So you are all invited.

I ws reviewing the arrival NOTAMs tonight and wondering the same thing. Last year we camped in HBC, which was kind of like RV town, but it was too far for any mode of transport but the trolley. One cu. ft. water jug gets real, real heavy if you miss the trolley back to camp. Dummy here walked right past the water trailer at the edge of camp and hiked all the way into the display area to find potable water the first night. Doh!
I like the company of RV's, but I'll go for convenience this time. Where's the best spot in that instance? Mostly, I want to be wherever SERV is hangin' out
Second wave sounds like a plan. It's 4:47 airtime the route I've planned, and that's cutting it really close, as well as requiring early push-off. A little a.m. ground fog here would mess up everything.
"Work with me on this," Dennis; what's the plan?

Only other time I've camped at SNF, I had a real good experience in the
vintage area.

Exactly, but no **** merlot.
If I recall correctly, this was when I hitched a ride from Scot Jordon. His
plane was parked in RV Acres, but we camped in the Vintage area. On the
edge of a wooded area, coffee in one direction, showers the other. Good
times...

How about gathering at Salisbury and filling up on the $2.95/gal 100LL
and heading south from there. I'm thinking about 9:30 at RUQ.

Go to Sun N Fun web site and pull up the MAP. The pond is in the bottom right corner of grid A2. You can also camp in the top part of A3. Park in Homebuilt just south of the flight line or B2 on the grid.

Stormy,
Could you fly down here on Wednesday evening and you and the missus stay at our house overnight, and head down from N08? With a quick pit-stop and passenger trade-off in Washington, you could be on your way bright and early Thursday morning.
Otherwise, Dennis planned out a trip from N08-DPL(for gas)-AZE-X35-LAL for a combination of gas prices and butt-time. It's 4:09 total time from here. Even if it's only 8am when you guys get out of here, it will be a tough timeline to get in before the airshow.
So, if you can fly here to Farmville Wednesday night, that extra hour would really mean a bunch for our timing. Logistically, whatever works best for trading out your passenger (Wednesday evening, early Thursday morning) works for us.
Call us--252-355-8705--and we'll figure it all out.
Lori & Dennis
PS As far as camping goes, Dennis planned to camp at the HBC and ride the trolley. Sure is a lot easier that way, and he's got buddies from the TVRVBG and those Alabama boys he likes to watch for. (c:

Cappy,
How long a walk from Homebuilt parking to the lake? Is homebuilt parking off
limits during the airshow?

Notams suggest incoming traffic unlikely to be accepted before 6pm each day due to high volume of planes wanting "out" after the airspace reopens. Be forewarned. If Dennis needs 4 pee stops to get there, ain't no way we're gonna make it by noon, so I'm thinking leisurely flight down, arrive 6 or a little after, and y'all save us a spot
