    Does that generally lend itself to an FRG fly-by?

    Is it just me or is this years show kind of slow?

    Unfortunately we are three weeks out and no information has been released about the event.

    Also as an FYI there is presently construction on the second bridge of the Meadowbrook Parkway, the draw bridge, and only one lane going south and one lane going north is open. Hopefully repairs will be completed before Memorial Day Weekend.

    If not I would use the Wantagh Parkway

    FYI - No more toll booths on the Meadowbrook or Wantagh State Parkways. No more kiosks by the main bath house. You now pay your parking admission, $10, at a booth at the parking field.

    Here is a link to see how full each field is
