Default Florida Jets: WX no-go?

Doesn't look good guys. I enjoyed playing in the mud last year with the 4Runner, but its too far to drive to just get soggy.
Saturday is the only day I can make it....and it looks like a rainout.
TWO YEARS IN A ROW!

Default Flagler in Feb

FTE should really consider moving the date to March or April. The weather at Flagler in Feb. is windy cold and wet.
Last year we had a great time with our rental car stuck in the mud for hours.

Default FJ 2003

Just got back. Word is that FJ 2004 will most likely be moved to Lakeland, Florida, site of TopGun 2002 and Full-Scale Sun and Fun.

No significant rain on Wed-Friday, and FTE spent $2500 on road improvement just before we moved in on Wednesday. Little or no mud. Great flying all 3 days with light winds with temps in the 80's.

Had to leave early. Rain is expected on Saturday, maybe into Sunday.

I was planning to drive down on saturday as well. I would have been there by 11am and would have been pissed to be asked to leave by 1pm. Lets hope it is dry and calm next year.
