    Sam,

    im glad to hear that you’re looking at improvements to the app. There are plenty of gripes in the archives about the app since it came out, and they’ve persisted for years. As event apps go it continues to be pretty poor and not up to EAA standards. Syncing between the app and website, and between devices would be a great start. Planning your whole week on a phone screen is no fun.

    Yes, I have an 8"X11" card filled with my week schedule.
    I wish there was a place on the Airventure website to see new arrival news.
    They told me to check "social media". No way.
    I listen to EAA Radio. But they only give news at 6-7am or something and then it's interviews all day with nothing about the stuff on the field. They read off the forum schedule often but I already have that. The EAA radio announcer should be on the flight line calling out the live stuff (as they do it at Arlington Fly-In). Perhaps by breaking into interviews with live news from time to time or something.

    Our chapter couldn't sustain itself, to few pilots and just not enough local interest. But as an EAA member I suppose I can eat at the chapters pavilion. I do love me some pancakes !
