I am a bit confused by the VFR arrival to Mun n Fun. The notam states that we can basically choose our altitude (100 kts 1200MSL) or (150kts at 1700msl) so that's pure choice. But then it goes on to say that if it gets backed up, all twins regardless of speed are to hold at 2200Msl over Lake Parker, and or 3000 Msl over Lake Hancock.

The notam describes how if you are instructed to hold, you are to essentially "follow the leader". But that's not going to work because if one of us is following at 1200msl, or 1700msl we will be required to climb to 2200msl or 3000msl depending on where we are held. I can't imagine that they want us to climb in the hold. So what's the dealeo ? We arrive at 3000, then step down when we don't get held, to then be bounced back up to 3000 a minute later if a delay develops ? Maybe it's too late in the day, but this doesn't look quite right.

I don't think it will be an issue. Might be some grey here but we will plan to hang with the 120 speeders.

Will you be joining us?

Not absolutely sure yet, but it appears that Jenny and I will be there on behalf of the Coast Guard Auxiliary.

No... And worse than that, I will probably be arriving in either a 310 or a 340... one of those silly side-by-side twins.

Exclamation SOAPA Meeting

We have received a total of 2 registrations for SOAPA Fly-in. I need to give the folks at Sun 'N Fun a head count for our Tuesday arrival.


IS ANYONE ELSE PLANNING TO ATTEND?

IS ANYONE PLANNING TO MEET AT LAKELAND ON ANOTHER DAY OTHER THAN TUESDAY?

DO YOU WANT TO PARK WITH THE SKYMASTER'S?

WHAT DAY WILL YOU BE ARRIVING?

Thanks

Hey Herb,

I have delayed in responding because I'm not sure yet, but things are looking good so far. Chances are that I will be there. I plan to arrive at EVB on Monday and fly over with the group. I plan to stay 3 or 4 days.

Herb,
I'm in the same boat as others...plans still in flux. But at this point, looking to jojn you all at EVB on Monday and then fly-in together. Probably park with others, but unlikely on the camping part. Quick question on EVB - where is everyone staying on that Mon night?
