The Sun ‘n Fun International Fly-In and Expo launches on Tuesday in Lakeland, Fla., promising a full roster of aviation events all week long. AVweb staffers are already on the grounds, compiling news reports, videos, and podcasts for delivery to your inbox Tuesday through Sunday. All of general aviation’s major players are here, with news about new products and updates on projects in the works. Cirrus, Garmin, Cessna, Piper, Avidyne and Lightspeed all have news conferences scheduled early in the week, and AVweb will bring you all the details. The show is earlier than usual this year, launching even before April arrives, but the weather promises to be plenty hot, with temperatures in the 80s all week and a threat of thunderstorms just about every day.
The show will feature a range of programs and events, with a flight demo by the Blue Angels, daily airshows and fly-bys, 450 educational forums and more than 500 commercial exhibitors. For all the details about the show, and info for pilots who are planning to fly in, go to the official website. And watch your inbox every day this week for all the news from AVweb.
