Is there a listing of the number of arrivals by day? I tried googling it and came up blank.
Thanks

VFR arrivals? I'm not sure there is any real way to predict that, especially considering factors like weather.
IFR arrivals might be somewhat predictable as we get closer to the week considering the IFR clearances are provided in a lottery format and only a set number are given out. Hope that helps...

Rick,

During the convention July 20-26 the only people that would know the number of arrivals by day for sure.
Would be the FAA, ATC = Air traffic control tower. Check the Camping Guide (http://content.eaa.org/~/media/files/airventure/planyourtrip/camping/av15_campingguide_8%205x11.pdf) for FAA control Air traffic control tower info.

Other than that there are Mass arrivals on July 17th 18th 19th,
This was posted on the EAA website March 5, 2015 on who & when the mass arrivals are scheduled to arrive.
Birds of a Feather: Aircraft Groups Prepare for Annual Oshkosh Journeys (https://www.eaa.org/en/airventure/eaa-airventure-news-and-multimedia/eaa-airventure-news/2015-eaa-airventure-oshkosh/03-05-2015-birds-of-a-feather-aircraft-groups-prepare-for-annual-oshkosh-journeys)
There should be a dedicated mass arrivals web pages posting coming soon.
I'm not sure how many planes are landing on the three days, but there is a lot.

Wrong,

I think I worded my question poorly. What I SHOULD have asked is if there is a historical record f how many airplanes landed at osh leading up to the show. Just a curiosity question. We always hear 'worlds busiest airport' of which I do not doubt, but I was curious by how much.
thanks
