Spring 2004 SOAP Fly In and Meeting

C'mon. We're talking about Key West here! No, it ain't the Bahamas. But were talking Mallory Square. Duvall Street. Marguaritaville. Jimmy Buffett. Ernest Hemingway. Fishing. Diving. Partying. Really tacky cheap T Shirts. No customs, ADIZ, or approaches where you can't find or buy an approach plate to save your soul. It's the only place on the list of sites where your significant other and your friends are actually going to *ask* if they can come along.

Regarding approaches, flew into Nassau this past July and had to shoot a VOR/DME almost down to mins. So, I'm not much worried about Key West's approach. (Bob, if you're reading this, I was cursing you at the time under my breath because you promised me last year that no one ever has to shoot an approach into the Bahamas!!!) And hey, you can always bail out to Marathon where they have cheap 100LL.

Notwithstanding the above, I'm going to keep my vote confidential. :-)
