    How you make the Seaplane base the coolest Place to be!

    If EAA would post a Time every other day during OSH when the MARS flying Boat would do several Takeoffs, Landings, High speed Taxing and a Water pickup and Drop just off shore. Record crowds would line the beach. What do you guys think? During the morning over at the OSH airport on the big Screens located around the fair grounds the MARs could be shown doing these things with upcoming times for the week.

    The plane is in the afternoon airshows for Monday, Wednesday, Friday. For Saturday it's in the evening airshow. During those times you have a choice to either watch it from the airshow or go to the seaplane base to watch it take off/land. Since it also needs 3 miles to take off/land of water it's doubtful you will see everything from the seaplane base.
