On my list of things to do one day ... not that far from home. :ernae:

So is New Smyrna Beach too ... :)
 
Thongs like that really jack me off. Whoever did it knew that it wasn't his... why fool with it?
 
I've met Kermit. He's a great guy, and you will probably see him wondering around FoF. He usually flies the demo at least once during the day.

He's exceptionally wealthy, but his family made their money after his character was was already formed and out in the world.
 
Yes, a great place to visit indeed... My folks have been.... Liberty Belle spent a wintere there one year. Mr. Weeks is truly passionate about historic aircraft presentation.
 
I really have to get over to FoF one of these days. It's really so close to home that I have no excuse other than laziness as to why I still haven't made it over there. :redf: I've also got to get myself over to Sun 'N Fun this coming year (April) in Lakeland.

Have fun today, Chacha!
 
Oh, you need to do both, definately.

I take a day off work and volunteer at KPCM (where I keep my plane) for Sun-N-Fun. We get a lot of folks coming in there. Then I spend at least a day at KLAL.

There are generall discounts given for various groups...veteran's, senior citizens, AOPA members...so check those out before you go.

Yeah, I really do need to do both. Even my wife has mentioned them both to me several times, and she doesn't even care about aviation at all. She just knows how much I love planes, and thinks they're both things I would enjoy doing. :)
 
This is a MUST see, guys and gals....

Let me share a few pictures....

a lot more... later....
 
I envy you for getting to go there, I have always wanted to but have never had a reason to be in that part of Florida.
 
OH my GOODNESS!

This is the museum that hold raffels for aircraft that are restored classics.. I joined a raffel on a ancient restored Cessna 140 here.

The place looks like a Disneyland for pilots!

You were blessed to go there Eli. Very nice. Hope you had a blast.


Who is the guy holding up the DVD package that has his picture on it??

EDIT ONE: What kind of sea plane is that in the background?

EDIT TWO: Is that the actual, real Enola Gae that Hannah is standing in front of??
