Anybody going to AOPA's expo in Philadelphia at the end of
the month? It should be pretty interesting with lots of
seminars and such. They will have lots of parking space at
both KPHL and KPNE. KPHL has a nice train (regional rail)
which leaves each airport terminal and stops directly
underneath (Market East Station) the Pennsylvania convention
center, where Expo will be held. It leaves every 30 minutes
and costs $5.50. Atlantic Aviation, the FBO at KPHL, also
operates shuttle service between the terminals and the FBO.
In addition, AOPA will also be running buses from the
convention center to the exhibition ramp.

KPHL has greatly expanded General Aviation apron space since
the new runway was built and a new ramp was built a few
years ago. (The new Terminal F sits where Atlantic Aviation
used to be). I'm not sure what landing fees will be for a
small airplane at KPHL, if any.
