The parking is outside secure area, Airport is owned by city of Houston, you will not be parking on the Federal portion.
So you are ok to leave in your car. Searches if done will be entering the secure area.

Re: Wings Over Houston
Some people park on the shoulder along Hwy 3 and watch from their cars. If it is Sunday You might park In the business parking lots across the street from the end of the runway but I would not leave the car as Howdy said because it might be towed off.jester wrote:If anyone has suggestions where there's a good view without having to disarm, I would be interested as well.
Muchas gracias amigos.

Re: Wings Over Houston
Normally at Ellington or Hobby I carry when going to my Hanger.
At Ellington I have to drive inside the secure fence to access my hanger.
Since the hangar is leased by me on city property I am ok.
The Airshow is within a secure area of the airfield and shared by federal entities which you might be on there premises during the airshow could be a gray area not worth exploring. I wouldn't recommend it.
When I am within a secure area of a Texas airport at the Fixed Base operators (FBO) where private aircraft go I carry directly to and from my aircraft only and no where else. Since the FBO leases property from the city it is treated like. A business. Other LEO'S or TSA might inteprate the law differently though leaving you to fight it out in court.
