Default Florida

How about a Florida, or at least Central-South Florida get together? We would have to meet down here though cause I don't fly yet. It could be at FLL or FXE.

FLL is a little far south for me (I'm in SUA). PBI is about the limit for right now. But I would be up for something, assuming I get the time to do it.

How about ORL? JohnTenney and Kellwolf are there (or near there) and it's central to pretty much every airport in the state.

Well I am in FL right now but I really don't want to meet any of you. (Hee hee, jk. I just don't have Corbin with me so it would be weird.)

Hey R2F--I will be at Bush gardens tomorrow. I could meet your wife. You can't come though.

ORL would take 3 hours for me to get up to and my parents wouldn't wanna drive me. FLL is just half an hour and I can get there. Whatver you guys decide.

Funny, funny girl!

How long are you in Tampa? (sorry, just saw this today - the day you're at Busch Gardens ... hot, isn't it?? )

Drop me a PM and we'll see if my wife and I can come meet up with you and Caleb. Our treat.

A FL meet and greet would be cool.
I'd be flying out of DAB.
Has the customer service been any better at FLL if thats what you are thinking? Last time I parked there, it was up the tailpipe of a KingAir's PT6's just idled on the ramp. Blasted my passenger and made the aircraft rock. Not ot mention the Ramp fee or the amount of fuel you have to buy at steep rates.

Don't worry, I'll look into all that stuff. Also, it would probably be FXE and not FLL. Are we looking to go into a restaurant or not? What will we ne doing? We need to know all these things.

I'd be down for LAL. They have a decent restaurant on the field. OCF and SGJ also have good restaurants. I think Brian would have a problem getting there unless he could find someone around FLL to hitch a ride with. I've flown into FXE once, and I swore I would never do it again unless someone was paying me to do it. Fuel prices are high, ramp fees if you DON'T buy fuel are high, and I had a real headache getting out of parking. They put me BETWEEN two aircraft (after I told them I would only be there for 20 minutes tops), and I had to push myself back. Then the fuel truck pulled up right off my left wing to fuel the plane next to me. Took this guy (no lie) 15 minutes to fuel a 152! Then I had to wait to taxi out b/c of the King Air and G-V pulling in in front of me. WAY too small of parking space for an airport that busy. If we do it at FLL, I'll probably just non-rev down on SWA.

Both LAL and OCF have great little places to grab some grub.... as do PGD and VNC.

I'll throw out a date: Saturday, August 7th at LAL.

Who's in?

First thing I thought was "split a Seminole? Are they that close to the wing spar useful life already?"
