    Mass arrivals schedule for Saturday

    I'm planning on flying in on Saturday 23rd mid to late morning. Does anyone have a list of times that the mass arrivals will be expected?

    Is the field temporarily closed to all other traffic when a mass arrival is in progress? (Bonanzas 2 Oshkosh, Mooney Caravan, Pipers, Cessnas, etc.)

    In other words, are there times I should avoid on Saturday?

    Update: NOTAM Page 6
    Large Formation Arrivals
    To increase efficiency and safety of traffic
    arriving at Wittman Regional Airport,
    several large groups of similar-
    performance aircraft have been approved
    to make formation arrivals. Participation in
    these arrivals is limited to aircraft
    registered in each group and requires an
    FAA letter of authorization.

    These formation arrivals are scheduled
    for late morning through mid-afternoon on
    Saturday, July 23, and for early morning
    through early afternoon on Sunday, July
    24. Weather and other factors may
    change the schedule. Other traffic using
    the Fisk VFR arrival to Oshkosh can
    expect delays during these large formation
    arrivals.
