Ken Posted August 7, 2022 Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 Hi Folks: I am hoping to fly in for this in Mt. Vernon Illinois. Has anyone ever attended? Thoughts on if it is worth the trip? There is not much current info on exhibitors yet. https://www.midwestlsaexpo.com/ Best, Ken N286CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Meade Posted August 7, 2022 Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 I like to and often do attend this event. It's a nice airport. There is fuel and food there. Tom Baker is there and I always enjoy talking with him. Brett Lawton from LEAF is there. Randy Schlitter from Rans is often there. Billie from Just told me at Oshkosh he hoped to attend. There are other LSA, helicopters and so forth. To me, it's a low-key, casual, relaxing and enjoyable 2-hour one-day trip. I usually pick up a tip or two in a situation that is easy-going. I expect to attend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrassStripFlyBoy Posted August 7, 2022 Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 I'm keeping it on the calendar too, hope to fly in and stay one night. All depends on weather and work schedule, making call that week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Meade Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 It doesn't look like I'll make it this year, darn it. Both airplanes down at the moment and while neither is serious neither will be ready to fly down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
