Sun N Fun 2024

If you plan to attend Sun N Fun 2024, make sure you stop by one of my seminars.

At this time the schedule is Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in Classroom / Forum room #8.

Check the forum schedule to make sure nothing has changed.

I have three different topics I will cover:

  1. Is your ego buying aircraft you can’t get insured?
  2. Picking The Best Aircraft For You
  3. The Real Cost To Owning An Aircraft
