Right. None of them mentioned Ercoupes because I never use the
"sanitized airspace" procedure that the Mooneys, Bonanzas, etc. use. We
just come in using the normal Fisk arrival procedure. There are 2
reasons for this:
1. I want all the Ercoupers to experience the normal Fisk arrival
procedure so if they ever want to come to AirVenture on their own, not
in our flight, they know what to expect.
2. I really think it's unfair that the Mooneys, etc. are able to
totally disrupt the inbound traffic for their arrival. All inbounds are
shut off and told to go elsewhere or hold for about an hour while they
make their grand arrival. We just blend into the flow of inbounds.
I thought of a third reason yesterday, but can't think of it now
(getting old). Anyway, that's why we're not mentioned.
