EAA at SUN ’n FUN 2019

February 28, 2019 - The 2019 air show season is right around the corner and EAA is getting ready to kick it off with its annual trip to the SUN ’n FUN International Fly-In & Expo. A little more than a month away, a lot of great activities and events are planned to greet EAA members and fly-in guests. If you are planning on attending SUN ’n FUN, let your membership save you on admission prices. By entering the code EAA543 during online checkout or showing verification of your membership at the main admission gate you can save $7 on daily or $30 on weekly adult admission. EAA will also have representatives at the main gate to assist with membership verification, renewals, or new memberships.

The main EAA exhibit will be located on the corner of SUN ’n FUN Road and Laird Boulevard, just south of the FAA building. EAA staff from a variety of departments will be in attendance to answer your questions. A full lineup of forums will also be held at that location on a variety of member interests. Check out the full schedule below. If you have questions about or are considering lifetime membership, meet the EAA lifetime concierge and learn about the show special. And of course, shop new EAA merchandise, including 2019 EAA AirVenture Oshkosh T-shirts.

EAA members and one guest are also invited to enjoy the air show and meet other members at the EAA Member Oasis located on the Warbirds ramp. Enjoy shade and air show seating along with some refreshments and an ice cream social daily.  The EAA Member Oasis is open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from noon to the end of the air show. A shuttle will also be provided between the EAA main exhibit and the EAA Member Oasis.
