The
U.S. Sport Aviation Expo is alive and well and in its seventh year.
The day dawned bright and clear, temps in the 70s, and as Event Chairman
Bob Woods told me early on, "It's our best opening day yet."
Visitors were indeed evident all over the expansive tarmac of Sebring Airport, right next to the famed (and sometimes very noisy)
Sebring Raceway, home of the 24-hour race.
More than 140 exhibitors are here, and although rainy/gloomy weather moves in for Friday, it's expected to clear out in time to return cooler-but-sunny skies for the weekend.
If you're anywhere in the area and hope to see many of the top LSA, new kids on the block and lots of ancillary display booths for the latest avionics, sport flight accessories live-on airparks and lots more, it's just getting started so come on down!

Lots of folks in the display hangars |
First, a few photo picks from Day 1, then individual posts of some highlights from my first day...lots to talk about so let's get to it.

A gorgeous S-LSA replica of the WWII German recon plane, Criquet's Stolp Storch. More to come on this bizarre bird. |
