    Is this taxi allowed on the airfield and onto the parking areas? If so do you have their contact info? The idea is to be able to Sherpa an RV-10’s worth of cargo in one go without transloading at a gate.

    Before and after the show, the Kobussen folks can get their vehicles inside the gate, so that may be an option if you arrive early and leave late. Beyond that, there is the Homebuilt Welcome wagon, which will take you a little ways off campus (not sure how far).

    If the welcome wagon will go to sleepy hollow then that’s an option. My biggest concern would be getting them to come back out when we’re ready to depart.

    They took us to the event where I saw you on Monday night. I don't think Sleepy Hollow would have been a problem.

    It goes right to the plane and can go off-field into town. It's a volunteer run operation. They can be reached by phone or you can inquire at places like Vintage Flight Line operations who has a radio link to them.

    if you have the number, can you pm it to me? No one has ever mentioned these guys on the home built side so I’m leery of counting on them without having their contact info prior to arrival.

    Uber/Lyft pickup points are shown on the Airventure map.

    Sigh. I know that. Unfortunately I still have to get all of our crap from the plane to that point. The whole objective of this exercise is to try and do it without loading and unloading multiple times in the process. If that's what we have to do, then so be it, but I figured it's worth exploring all the options.

    The number is the two primary driver's cell phone. I'm a little reticent to give it out at this point. Remind me just before next year's show.
