Feel free to PM me Mike. I can tell you the lowdown on the area you were looking at.

1600VW, kind of like that, however, sometimes it will be white out conditions and seeing the first tree would be a stretch. Oh, and the bone chilling wind chill that you can't quite get a feel of...

I have lived in Oshkosh or within 10 miles of Oshkosh my entire life. I was a cop in the neighboring town, was a deputy for Winnebago County and have run a small service business here for 15 years...

I have been out of law enforcement for awhile, but the local police depts sometimes did training there including vehicle operations through the areas with buildings to simulate operations in urban...

Kyle, you are just about right on the money! That is the way a lot of people think around here... That and any time there is a crash, coming to Airventure, at Airventure or leaving Airventure many of...

Yeah, like Zack said it is actually a 4 day event called Rock USA. They also have Country USA in June. They are put on by the same promoter. Yes, Ford is a big sponsor of both.

This is a yearly...

I appreciate the buses running us around the North 40. I really do.

However, really people. If you need to get off at row 431 and we are stopped at row 429 just get off there. Why wait until you...

Yeah I would have liked to see it up close as well. However, seeing it flying in the airshow made up for the lack of it being on display!

Sorry for the long delay Hal. I really found that the app just was not very user friendly. On Wed for example my brother and I both did the update from within the app. Both showed a successful...

With the exception of just prior to the Saturday night show I had no issues with getting 4G most times. No issues with voice coverage at all.

Thanks guys!

Does anyone know the story with Duggy? Where is the big yellow guy? It has been 2 or 3 years now with no sign of him and not much activity on their Facebook page.

I have tried multiple phones, tablets, computers and have not been able to connect to the EAAWIFI or EAAWIFI2 for more than a couple of minutes. At first I thought it was just bad coverage in the...

Ugggh. Really think this app is garbage. Not that it matters because I can't get a WiFi connection anywhere on the grounds anyway...

I was a cop, I decided to change career paths a few years back.

How do you expect me to "explain this unnecessary level of force" when I was not there or involved. You state you were 5 rows away,...

I have worked for the Oshkosh Police Dept and the Winnebago County Sheriffs Office out on the grounds. There is more alcohol related stuff out there than you would expect. We have had thefts, fights,...

If you really want I can try to dig up some letters to the editor of the local papers and comments on Airventure stories on local media.

I can even make up a poll of local friends if you are so...

Yeah, usually they make a good amount of money during that week and love it. I know wait staff that make more tips in one day during AirVenture than an entire weeks pay and tips any other time of the...

I have lived in (or within 10miles) and worked in Oshkosh my entire life.

1. While maybe half of Oshkosh residents is not completely accurate, there are very, very many residents who HATE...

I think we all need to comment during the comment period that we want it to include night and ifr.

Maybe at Chicago, but at Oshkosh in the last year (I am based there) the craziest direction I was given was "do a left 360 for spacing"

So, what is the consensus on painting an aluminum plane, like my Sonex with latex? I seem to only find info about fabric aircraft and latex paint.

I know that aluminum siding, soffit and fascia...

I agree. Between my wife, brother, and half a dozen friends, all with different phones and carriers, we could not get wifi anywhere on the grounds. 4G data was hard to connect to and 3G was even...

I use the North 40 buses a lot since my hangar is on the north side of the field and it is a long walk all the way around the west end of 09/27.

One thing I would wish they would do with the...

I know not all vendors were being jerks. MGL was very helpful, as was AeroLEDs. Of course Spruce was good as usual. Along with a bunch of others I talked with.

However, it seemed that there were a...
