thanks

This year I am looking for options to get grandsons and SIL from KOSH to Appleton for their flight home on Saturday, 27 July. If the Kobussen busses run on the schedule similar to 2023, they can't...

So....I am sitting here pondering the end of another day, and my ear hairs start to vibrate. Someone else, somewhere, is referring to battery power stations as "solar generators". Sure enough my...

I wonder why they weren't called out by Fisk? To me, ADS-B has been a blessing culling out the cheaters BY N NUMBER, and telling them to go back. (And.....we have had the cheaters since it was only...

I would never suggest that scooters not be available for those who cannot otherwise navigate the vastness of this event due to a health issue. BUT.....just because grandpa or grandma need one, that...

Yes, Randy, never met ya' but feel like I know ya'. Keep those groaners coming.

Hoping something does happen with this. I was in the Thursday morning conga line. Packed and ready with no place to go until noon, then a 30 minute taxi. I realize that some had it way worse.

Ron, the youngsters won't get it......but I loved it.

Arrived Thursday the 20th, just after the NOTAM took affect. After a 3 hr flight from Lower MO and a fuel stop in KMSN, it was like the old days, started at Ripon. Here are few bullet points (of...

Todd, thank you. For some reason I thought the tower was INOP for the other 51 weeks.......can't tell you how I got that understanding. Good to hear.

For years I have arrived early (pre-show), but always within the NOTAM "window". What happens if someone were to arrive,say, Thursday morning at 7am on July 20th? Is KOSH an uncontrolled field at...

I am assuming he means what was once called the Airventure "NOTAM". (Since that infers gender as "male" as in airMEN, it is now VERBOTEN to use such heinous language. ) We must use the new...

Check out "campendium"....it is fast becoming my go-to resource for questions such as yours.

Cirrus mass arrivals???? Good time to hit the showers or sort my sock bag.

I may have to do something similar to what you did, logistics wise, this year, only from a slighter greater distance. Can you share what the process is to actually set up in Scholler that early in...

So I have been coming to OSH since the 70's and have arrived via most conveyances, including cruising sailboat, but not submarine or Amtrak. I have slept under the wing (no tent) when the airfield...

Randy, as I sat in the Interstate 195 area, one of the conductors going by pointed out the Oshkosh Cottonwood tree (or something to that effect). Was that you?

I want to add that this event is the peak of my year. Always has been since the days of riding the "tram" from the N 40 which was then not that far north, and the tram was a flat bed farm wagon...

If there is a rule, I am all for universal enforcement. After Sunday night, many conveyances are not allowed on the grounds. The banned conveyances include (captured from website).....


...

First off, what I am about to suggest......I have NEVER tried. Each year, I get to OSH a day earlier than the last year. If I live long enough, soon I will be arriving the day after OSH ends (for the...

I am hopeful that the new procedures will help our arrivals, but Ripon to Fisk is unchanged. So I looked up the Standard Railroad Gauge for the US. It is 4'-8 1/2". So when you are over the tracks,...

I remember jumping on a moving "haywagon" pulled by a tractor, and that is how you moved around from parking to display areas. I remember NO DRINKS on the flightline, which was anywhere you needed a...

Since nobody smarter than me has answered this.....Flying Ron did give me a reply about the "urban myth" shared with me by my Vintage volunteer spies, that EAA was making plans to do as you suggest...

Don't forget to print out a VAC sign. You can get the artwork for that on the EAA website. What I do is I use the other side of the sign for the VFR sign which you will need on your departure. The...

Robert I will strongly recommend Vintage as a parking area. Close to ultralight field. Close to Tall Pines Cafe. You will be walking or bussing to the camp store. Tramming to light sport and fly...
