There is NO admission charge to our show. It is 100% sponsor-funded,
with NO charge to the general public.

Except, of course, for the food. The pancake breakfasts could be a real
disaster with two days of cold rain... But we'd still make money for the
Children's Museum.

Make sure that PIC's get free breakfasts! Around here during the fly-in
season, the local pilots look through the listings of fly-ins and pick the
ones that are free to the PIC. A few fly-ins also offer free breakfast for
the co-pilot. ;-) They usually have a sign in sheet for the pilot for their
aircraft type, N-number and where they flew in from. It's a great way to
tell how many planes have flown in and from where. Helps for advertising for
the next year.

I see you're already listed on http://www.iawings.com/calender/yearly.htm.
You may want to get listed on
http://www.dot.state.mn.us/aero/avof...s/fly-ins.html. Illinois,
Wisconsin, Missouri, etc., should also have similar sites.

One poster suggested setting up temporary air/ground traffic control. Unless
you expect to be the size of Air-Adventure, I don't see that it's needed.
I've been to local fly-ins with 120+ planes flying in and out of smaller
airports (MKT, 0K7, SPW, etc.) within a few hours without need for temporary
traffic control.

I've got your fly-in penciled in! I hope to fly into IOW sometime before
that also.
