There's no shortage of beer in Oshkosh. They even sell it now in all the on-site Red One markets. You are correct that the North 40 is much closer to various stores and restaurants than the South 40....
We landed and camped at FLD back in 2010, the Sploshkosh year. Fortunately for us, one of our group's brother lived nearby and loaned us his Chevy Suburban for the week. Best of all, the Hilton let...
We're wheels up at 0600, 6 months from tomorrow.
I used the Fuel Calc tab. Just note the value shown on the fuel pump next time you fill up. Enter it in the "actual fuel used" field on the calc page. Do it for the next 2-3 fill ups to narrow it...
A day without Bell 47 helicopters flying over HBC would be most welcome.
That $170M is new money coming in. It's not the barber giving $10 to the baker who gives it to the cook who gives it to the clerk, etc.
The Oshkosh City bus will take you from the bus park to within 4 blocks of The Roxy.
The Korbussen folk (same people who run the school bus around the North 40) run a shuttle service to anyplace you...
I can heartily recommend the Mineshaft. Leave the airport through the "hole in the wall" gate, the one before the Friar Tuck's gate, and walk NW another 2 blocks. They opened in 2020. Breakfast and...
If your plane is ADS-B Out equipped, the Fisk controllers know your secret.
I'm filling in my week with Welcome Wagon shifts, Veteran's breakfast, Young Eagle events, HBC corn roast and beer swap, the off-base RV beer event, etc. Might even look at an airplane now and then....
My reply was in response to the fuel reimbursement proposal about 10 years ago. The FAA response was Certificated planes only after an onerous application process and Experimentals need not apply,...
One of the straws that broke that camel's back was the pilot couldn't fly an Experimental aircraft during an EAA YE event.
BOTH ITEMS ARE SOLD
Garmin (Apollo) SL40 comm radio
Includes tray, installation manual and pilot guide. Minor cosmetic blemish on the display window off to the side of the display numbers. Does...
I will have a Garmin G3X touchscreen. How do I keep my hands warm and use the touchscreen?
The G3X Touch uses infrared, not capacitive, touch technology so you can wear ski mittens or welding...
From the mothership:
EAA Flying and Glider Manual Five-Volume Set
I also play guitar and bass so I really enjoyed all the performances over the years, especially the jam sessions down by the Red Barn. Remember when Gary Sinese's Lt. Dan Band played down at Theater...
My RV is as red as Rudolph's nose but the rwy 27 tower lady said, "Blue RV, cleared for takeoff." I held. She got testy and cleared the blue RV for takeoff again. So off I went. I hope her day...
I figured it was a slow day, allowing the Fisk controller time to reference our N numbers from ADSB-Out before contacting me on the approach.
We flew in as a flight of 3 last year arriving on Thursday afternoon before the show. We maintained a trail formation at 1800 ft and flank speed all the way from the Endeavor Bridge, slowing to 90...
Didn't Mercedes just test drive their new EV over 600 miles on a charge? I remember a coworker boasting he burned 0 gas driving his Nissan Leaf to work and home, a staggering distance of 36 miles. He...
I asked an F-35 pilot why their planes aren't equipped with ADS-B Out. He replied that the F-35 equipment list was spec'd out 25 years ago (before ADS-B was invented), so to remain within budget,...
I'll buy the first round for us at SOS this year.
Three guys (75, 64 and 55) from our airport have rented a house in Appleton and a rental car for the last 3 big shows. Another one (70) in our group was thinking he's too old for camping.
I'm 69 and...
Getting ready:
1. Vacation dates scheduled and approved with boss— N/A - retired
2. Camp site reserved— N/A - HBC for me
3. RV reserved— my 9A is standing by
See ya'll there.
