STOL Basecamp 

Bringing Your STOL Aircraft to SUN ’n FUN? 

Fly your STOL aircraft to SUN ’n FUN and make STOL Basecamp your home during the Expo. 

STOL Basecamp provides designated aircraft parking and underwing camping for qualifying STOL aircraft, bringing pilots and the backcountry aviation community together throughout the week. 


STOL Aircraft Eligibility 

STOL Basecamp aircraft parking and camping are available for aircraft classified as having Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) characteristics

Because space within STOL Basecamp is limited, pilots planning to park or camp with their aircraft must register in advance. 

Advance Registration Required 

Advance registration is required for all aircraft parking and underwing camping at STOL Basecamp. 

Registration helps the Basecamp team coordinate aircraft parking, camping and pilot support while accommodating as many aircraft as possible within the available space. 

2027 STOL Basecamp pilot registration will open soon.

Parking at STOL Basecamp 

Registered STOL aircraft may park within the designated STOL Basecamp aircraft area, whether you’re staying for the day or camping with your aircraft. 

When arriving for STOL Basecamp parking or camping, use the following aircraft placard: 

STOL BASECAMP — STOL 

Review the current NOTAM and SUN ’n FUN aircraft parking-sign requirements before your flight so ground personnel can direct you to the appropriate area after landing.
