Default Looking to fly in Florida

Hey guys I am going to be in Orlando Florida July 5-15th and would like to go flying at least one of those days. The only feild that I found in Orlando says that you have to be an invited guest to fly there. I am going to bring my 35% extra with. If I can find a field and some people to go flying with. Any suggestions?

Also If there are any fields along the way. In between Mn. and Florida I might like to stop there for a day also on the way back home.

Thanks for the info and help.
Shane

If you bring the girl in your avatar,...I would imagine you could pretty much fly anywhere you want.

Sounds great guys. That made up my mind then. The plane is coming with!! I will have to go flying a couple of days.

Voodoo keep me posted on the field situation.

And I will definately give you a call skunk

I am sorry I won't have Marina with me. Oh how I wish. But the wife will be with. She is also tall thin and blonde. But to my dismay, never dresses like that. And isn't quite that good looking. Was that my outside voice? DON'T TELL HER I SAID THAT!!!

That's a sweet deal. I will definately call and hook up with you guys. I am probably not as seasoned as all of you. But I can throw down a little. I have only been flying about a 1 1/2 years to almost 2. But with our winters its more like 1 year compared to you guys.LOL Any way it will be a good time. I am looking forward to it. And just getting away from the rest of the tourists for a day or two.

Talk to ya later
Shane

Its flying in circles that gets you in trouble. Thats when all the mid airs happen. If you just sit in one place then you won't hit anyone else. But the guy that is flying in circles will hit you.

I probably won't be able to fly till the weekend of the 11th and 12th. We are going to do the Disney World thing for the first five days we are down there. But we are going to be in Daytona for a couple of days and on the Gulf side for a couple of days. We haven't decided where on that side yet. I will keep you guys informed.

I will probably be bringing something different than my extra with now too. I pancaked her in last weekend at our fly in and probably won't have time to fix the damage. We will see.
