The food was great, the fireworks airshow was great, and the runway movie
was great. But Arlington isn't on the verge of becoming "Big Time", it is
already 'Big Time" and I don't think the people involved in it or the
community at large recognize that.




I was there Thursday through Saturday and I agree with most of what you
wrote with the exception of "the food was great." The vendors there have
the worst food the can possibly be made. The caterer that was doing the
breakfast had the hash brown potatoes so salted that they were not
edible, that is just one example. My girlfriend and I flew in in my
RV-6 so don't have a lot of extra room to carry groceries with us.
They did fix one of the complaints I have sent them over the years they
finally put showers down by the Van's RV aircraft parking area which is
nice for the ultra light folks and all of the RV pilots that camp there.
It is still a great fly in and I always enjoy it, I have probably flew
there about 30 times over the life of the fly in. I remember the first
time there it was few few airplanes parked along the taxi way and a big
community pasta feed, that was fun also.
