Another tip:
If the airport has a rotating beacon, you will want to set up your tent so
that it is in the "shade" of something else, like a hangar, airplane or
tree, between you and the beacon. Even so you will still have pulsating
light in your tent all night long, which might bother you.

Was going through the AOPA Airport Directory and noticed this is a
selection criteria. It sounds like a cool thing to do. I'm thinking you
just fly in, pitch the tent and chill. Has anyone in the group ever done
this? Apart from calling ahead to check with the airport management, are
there any other suggestions?
