Florida Sport Aviation Antique and Classic Association (FSAACA)
E.A.A. Vintage Chapter One
The Florida Sport Aviation Antique & Classic Association (FSAACA) EAA Vintage Chapter one is a group of aviation enthusiasts dedicated to the preservation and enjoyment of older airplanes and a “Just Plane Love” for sport aviation of all types.
Our goals are to collect and disseminate information pertaining to Antique & Classic aircraft, to foster and aid in the restoration of these aircraft, to promote aviation safety and education, and to extend knowledge and appreciation of all sport aviation endeavors. One of the efforts that we are proudest of is our scholarship program for young aspiring pilots.

A blanket permit has been acquired for a gathering at Blackwater Airfield, just submit the pilot name and N-number to Bobby Capozzi, RAF Florida Liaison,
bcapozzi@theraf.org.
A gathering at Blackwater Airfield on November 18-20, 2022. Enjoy hiking, fishing, canoeing, swimming, socializing and relaxing!
A variety of campground amenities and recreational opportunities are readily accessible nearby at Krul Recreation Area’s campgrounds with improved camping sites and restrooms with showers.
There is a nice swimming lake close by, and trails through the dense woods and suspension bridges over ravines provide that feeling of truly getting away from it all. The Blackwater River winds through the area. Named by the Choctaw Indians, the tannin-stained water contrasts sharply with the white sandy riverbed. Floaters and paddlers enjoy its leisurely flow beneath the dense forest canopy.
For more information about Blackwater, visit the Airfield Guide listing, or read the RAF’s Featured Airstrip article on our website.
An airfield day use fee of $2 is charged by the State of Florida and must be paid online prior to arrival. Krul Campground has several payment options available for its camping sites and showers.
Special arrangements or accommodations:
1. Check airstrip for limb(s), fallen tree(s), or obstacles before landing.
2. Park planes off of airstrip near the tree line at the southwest end of runway so that other landings will not be obstructed.
3. Campers do not pay a day use fee. Day use charge is paid online. Charge when entering Krul campground is $1.85 plus
tax per person. Children six and under do not pay a day use fee. Pay day use fee at FloridaStateReserveAmerica.com
Click on the 3 horizonal lines - menu bar, then click on Web Store, then click on day use fee icon that says $1.85. Follow
instructions and pay by credit card. Camping charges are paid by check and sent to the Munson office. Charges are $10.00 per night per camping site up to 5 people and up to 3 tents per site. Campsite charge increases $2.00 per person above 5 persons up to 8 people. If someone in the camping site is using the Krul showers, the charge for the campsite is $15.00 per night.
Honorably discharged military, active-duty military, seniors 65 or over, or 100% disabled pay $10.00 per night even if showers
are used.
