http://www.sun-n-fun.org/content/interior.asp?section=flyin&body=exhibitors That's a pretty impressive list! (I didn't count 'em -- the "500" comes from the SNF website...) It looks to me like SNF is rivaling OSH more and more in both size and scope. I hope it never loses its more laid-back...

Well, without noticing it, I managed to crank over the 500 hour mark yesterday. Not particularly impressive compared to many in this group for sure, but I have paid for each and every one of those hours myself.

Would Spirit of St. Louis or Creve Coeur airport be closer to the theme park? Can anyone recommend a decent "suites" hotel to stay at that's handy to the park? Is there any kind of decent transportation to/from the park? Thanks! -- Jay Honeck

1. Small planes use leaded gasoline, which is more polluting than autos and with over 600 landings and departures per day.... that is a lot of lethal pollution. 2. There is always the eminent danger of a plane crash, one just recently occurred and fortunately the plane landed in the marsh...
