Aircraft are allowed to power taxi in and out of spaces and due to the sand and our smallish tires, it take a LOT of power to taxi resulting in heavy rear prop blast . There are several airports close with ample hard surface parking [Plant City and Bartow for examples] with prepurchase SNF admission tickets available. Some even provide a method of transportation to SNF for a small fee or they have rental cars if preferred [the waiting lines for them are much shorter than at SNF too]. Also remember that access to your aircraft during the airshow is not allowed if you park in the normal homebuilt display areas. I will never fly into SNF again.

Not to put a damper on Sun-N-Fun, but if you're flying in and your plane
hasn't been registered for at least 6 months beware of the Florida Use Tax
situation.
