    Living in FL, I have flown into S 'n F several times.  As you are 
aware, a combination of pilots who can barely fly, definitely don't read 
Notams, and can't navigate is a dangerous combination.  The 100 KT 
flight lane, frequently sees Cessnas that think 80 KTS is close enough.  
Combine that with missing the flight corridor to the airport, and that 
can cause massive backups, the controllers do close the approach if it 
gets really screwed up (ie holding).  In a fast plane, I would seriously 
consider using the higher approach corridor, and getting more attention 
from 'approach'.
      Given the proper caution and preparation, flying into the event 
can be a good thing.  Especially if you're in a nice experimental ac.
