I'm hoping to fly in to Aero Expo this year.
I've never flown into an event like this before and just wondered what to be prepared for. The procedures seem pretty detailed and well explained (
here), but I'm guessing there will potentially be a lot of aircraft converging from all directions, and all into a busy and unfamiliar assembly area and holding pattern? One particular thing that struck me was the notion of no radio calls required until on final - even when approaching the assembly area.
Another recent thread contained a general note to a newly passed PPL about not flying to the Expo without an experienced pilot in tow. I just wondered how experienced others were before attending such an event, and what it was like the first time? Any tips?
I'm low-ish hours but pretty current, and it would be a great thing to do....
Thanks
