Haven't been there myself but my understanding is that the fine dust will work its way into every single nook and cranny that the airplane has. You'll want to tape up and cover everything. The acidic dust might not be corrosive to the composite airframe, but it's bad for anything metallic attached.
Dropped my nephew off there a few years ago... the required training to get an authorization code, required by Unicom before allowing landing, was extensive... a dozen or so CBT modules, and you'll watch each again and again until you get 100% on each and every quiz. Wish they did that for Sun 'n Fun, would address all the bubbas that don't read the NOTAM.
I’ve been a couple times but didn’t fly in. I have flown to Playa though at the Alvord Desert. Heed what they say about timing your round out and flare. It’s a different sight picture than landing at the usual airport with a lot of visual cues
