Gents, I have submitted the event briefing to the Whiting skipper, and have included a request for some relief on RV's. It may take a few days to hear back, so be patient.
I offered to operate under a ''probationary'' status; i.e. give us a one-time permission and see how it goes, with the understanding that if we mess it up somehow, the RV/camping issue is dead forever. Hopefully this will be granted. I also mentioned that if security was the issue, the best security we could have would be some RV guys on the field overnight.
Again, please be patient, let this request work its way through the chain-of-command, and keep your fingers crossed!

Bean,
That would work in some cases, but in David's and mine and others too, the camper is the airplane trailer... They call them Toy Haulers... It's all or nothing.

I figured the campers would stay at the camp site and just drive over to the field and fly. Just a thought

Ahhh got it! Nice l would enjoy sleeping with my jets as well
Just not very practical to move a 40' camper trailer, set it up, then take it back down and set it up again several times a day. I hope you can get them to allow it, we did it in the past.

Is there a small RV park close to holly field? it may be a solution for the RV guys and since we can leave trailers on the site I can hold a couple in my 6x12 this year.

I'll check with her Sluggo. My guess would be yes, but I better confirm! If not, she takes all needed measurements at the meet. Actually that works better as you can specify any special preferences wanted before she makes them. Bags are custom fit and any additions of pockets, wing tube slots, flaps, banding etc can be added. She'll have all the color samples with her, and she also offers any special embroidery you might want.

UPDATE
The Hampton Inn has offered a group rate that is pretty darn good: King or Queen rooms, $69/night; King suite for $79/night. In a few days they will send me a link that will access reservations with this special rate. So wait for the link and use it to book.
For general info, here is the Hampton Navarre website (again, wait for the Pensacola Jets link to book): http://hamptoninn3.hilton.com/en/hot...VHX/index.html
