]]> After landing at Sun ‘n Fun, the taxi is just as critical as the approach and landing. High-speed taxiing is common, and pilots must maintain control while sharing the runway with other aircraft. Following the NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) ensures safety and smooth movement toward designated areas.

Crossing Runways and Backtracking Safely

Unlike typical airport operations, airshow taxiing may require crossing active runways without radio communication. Imagine it as a taxiway and trust the procedures in the NOTAM. Backtracking long stretches of runway, sometimes over 6,000 ft, prepares you for marshalling into exhibitor or event parking safely.

Follow-Me Guidance and Securing Aircraft

Once near the marshaler, pilots rely on ground guidance such as motorcycles or follow-me vehicles. Proper tie-downs and aircraft handling in event parking areas are essential, especially to prepare for sudden Florida weather. Having visual cues like a marked sheet in the flight deck can help communicate your position to ground staff.
