Anyone planning on going?
I'm thinking it might be my first big solo X-country in the Waiex. Probably take two days from Colorado. Maybe fly to Texas one afternoon then into Florida the next morning.
Never been, is it as chaotic as flying into Airventure?

I plan to be there! I have indeed had less positive experiences flying into SnF that OSH. It seems that the arrival procedure is not taken as seriously as at OSH and you'll have pilots who show up not knowing the NOTAM'd arrival and it seems that the authorities don't care as much about the outlaws. I have heard people get cut off right over the approach controllers on the ground ("uh, red Bonanza, you need to procede to the east and get sequenced, oh, nevermind, head west and pick up the interstate"), and I have followed yayhoos that drifted off into the sunset on the arrival when it was time to turn south to LAL. Not sure whatever happened to that guy. Of course, last year at OSH, I had a dipshick in a single engine Commander off my left wing on right downwind to RW27 and the tower asked if we were a flight of two...uh NO! I suppose I'm venting a bit but come on down and park at Hombuilt Camping. We have a great time and the volunteers like us "interesting" airplanes on the front row (i.e. no RV's allowed)...
