Default flying to Burning Man

out of curiosity, since I have a group of friends who might be
interested; has anyone out there flown to Burning Man? I would
be curious about the logistics involved (what amount of stuff,
water, etc.)


E-mail me and I'll hook you up with the mailing list and answer any other
questions you might have.. Last year an AN-2 landed there.

There's an entire discussion group about this. It's very pilot-oriented,
technical and there is a diverse range of pilots there with many years of
experience.

In particular; I have found many pictures online of the event itself,
but very few of the airfield proper, tie down/aircraft themselves; it
might help to get the picture so to speak of what's involved, tie down
conditions, etc.


Note that I am not debating whether the whole thing is a good idea or not
:-)


I cannot overstate or exaggerate the magnificence and joy of the experience
or the awe that it inspires regardless of your spiritual, political or
social values.
