How complicated is it to fly into Sun-n-Fun? I read the stories of

I fly out of Orlando executive, so Lakeland is only ~49 miles and I
think it would be cool to motor down for one day (maybe bring one or
both of my boys along).

Any thoughts?

Thanks to all for the advice. My AOPA mentor (who happens to be local)
has been to Sun-n-Fun a number of times. He is currently between
airplanes, so, based on the advice here, I invited him to come along.
We will see how it works out.

I have done SNF since 1999. Study the NOTAM and fly the procedure.

Sometimes things get balled up and you have to orbit Lake Parker (800 ft
at 100kt or 1200 ft at 150 kt). Be sure that you can fly the appropriate
speed, look for other aircraft and monitor lake Parker Arrival frequency.

The advice to have another pair of eyes goes for all of us -- not just
the newbies.
