I don't even know when it is...this weekend?
It's not far, I might consider it.

500+ planes attended according to the AOPA volunteers I spoke to. Great weekend in St. Simons. Worth the trip.

KSSI. The Arrival procedures officially began at noon on Friday. We landed just prior to that. I'd say the bulk of the group arrived on Saturday morning. It was interesting to watch the row of landing lights on final while listening to the CTAF. Looked like Hartsfield.SportPilot wrote:Which airport did you fly into? I don't really want to fly into an airport with 499 other airplanes.
We flew home early on Sunday morning.

No. We roughed it at the King & Prince.SportPilot wrote:Did you camp? I had considered going and camping 2 nights, but decided not to when I scheduled the seaplane thing. My flying budget is not infinite.
