A. We do not charge a fee to park your aircraft on the south side of the field. There is a daily admission charge and a camping fee if you choose to camp under your wing.

Q. A number of us are coming to SUN ‘n FUN but won’t arrive at the same time. How can we make sure that we can camp together?
A. The first person who arrives must register for the entire party. Then that person is allowed to rope off the area in which the group is to camp. The campground host is located on-site if you need assistance. You must rope on spaces 20′ x 40′ or smaller for each campground permit purchased.

Q. I want to make sure that I’ll be able to camp on-site. Can I reserve a camping spot now?
A. Camping spots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Weekly camping and convention registration can be purchased online. However, this purchase does not reserve a specific location in the campground. You are not permitted to mark off a camping spot unless a permit has been purchased and is visible in the spot. A lack of camping space has not been a problem in the past, although you may be placed some distance from the main convention site.

Q. I am attending the fly-in with a number friends and we are going to share a large tent or trailer. Does the camping registration fee apply to each of us or towards one camping spot? And how big is such a spot?
A. Camping fee is per unit, so you and your friends only need to pay for a weekly camping permit for each unit used. Each person in the party will be required to purchase convention admission. Camping spaces are limited to 20′ x 40′ in size.

Q. What is the difference between Convention RV/Aircraft Camping and Overnight RV / Aircraft Camping?
A. Convention camping, can be with a tent, RV or Aircraft (GAC), and is considered weekly camping. You will charged a flat weekly rate (actually it is a four day rate). Although it is primitive camping, a camp store, showers, water and port-a-potties are located nearby.

Overnight Camping, can be a tent, RV or Aircraft (ONC), and is considered daily camping. You are charged a per day rate. In most cases, Facilities such as supplies, showers, water and port-a-potties are located some distance away.
