    Leaving for Sun ‘n Fun Saturday the 6th.

    Hello everyone, I will be leaving with 324MN on Saturday morning to avoid the congestion at Sun and fun. I hope to see more icons there. Let me know if you plan to drop in. We will be there all week,

    blue skies!

    FYI, as an Apple Product nut (11 computers, 9 iPads, Vision Pro, etc...) I am going to take Lots of Spacial Videos of the Icon if anyone with a Vision Pro or Meta 3 wants to have them. I will put them on a Shared Photos Folder.

    I was already kind of planning to do so but definitely since you’ll be there. Looking to land like 7am Tuesday.

    We got 3 Icons this week at Sun ‘n Fun and a few owners without their collectors items. Thanks to James, Joseph and Jack for coming. We covered sn 00024 all the Way to 00181 and even had a 4 blade prop. Name:  IMG_2141.jpg

    I’m sure. It’s a sexy plane. It’s like eye candy. I still remember seeing it up close for the first time. I’d be worried of people touching it. Like the owners at a classic car show. They have signs to keep your hands off. Most people are smart enough to respect it, while others need directives.

    It was a great time there and great meeting you Michel! I definitely felt like an Icon salesperson the whole time there. They were nonstop coming over and asking questions! LOL

Size:  1.23 MBI am back in Tennessee. 5h10m down to KLAL and 6h20m back. Sun 'n Fun was a blast but it would have been awesome to have Icons take-over the whole Seaplane area You can't throw a nerf-ball in Florida and not hit an Icon. We could have had 25 planes there. Maybe next year we can organize the IOPA meeting at the same time and get more people. We could also organize catering at the Seaplanes tent on some of the nights (It was unused most evenings) or all go to a nice restaurant as a group. We could hire a mini-bus to get there and back so none of us have to be designated drivers... Just some ideas...
