Default AOPA Expo

The AOPA Expo is in Tampa at my home airport = KTPF (Peter O. Knight Airport) starting tomorrow.

If anyone is coming down for this shindig, give me a holla!

I'll be working the event all three days and would enjoy meeting some of you folks.

......and, yes, folks (coughcoughtTENNEYcough ) - jets CAN land at TPF. So far, we have a Beech Premier, a CJ-III and are expecting the Adams-Jet and two more.

We've been informed by AOPA that the 103 static display aircraft will be the largest display they have ever had!!

Should be cool!

Stan

That would be awesome to visit! I did my initial CFI out of Peter O. Night... I remember my flight partner kept calling it Peter O'Toole airport on the radios... "Peter O'Toole Traffic, Seminole 41 Bravo on final" LOL! Great memories!

Grrrr.... yet again this wedding has screwed me over. I bet my good friend is there this weekend too, working for AOPA.

Wow, I haven't posted here in forever. I work in the Amsouth building which is about 200 yards from the convention center and about 2 miles from Peter O'Knight. I am fairly high up in the building so I can see the airport from here. It is killing me to sit here and watch the planes taking off and landing over there. I think I might have to leave work early to go check things out today. Tomorrow, Saturday, will be way too crowded for me.
