Airventure webcams

I am not going up till thursday but I think there are some webcams on the field. Does anyone have the website?

They're really cracking down and restricting live webcam broadcasts... read this:

http://www.airventure.org/media/OSH-2010-web_stream_policy.pdf

If your phone will stream live video, you're essentially "not allowed" by this policy, though I don't see published what the penalties are if you're caught.

www.oshkosh365.org had a webcam last year, often looking at the blue dot on 18/36. It may only be available on the "members only" side, but I don't recall. It was great on the days that I couldn't be there.

Interesting. I never thought of the EAA as being in the same category as big league sports with respect to media restrictions. Actually lowers my opinion of the EAA quite a bit.
The only valid item I see is ensuring that equipment does not interfere with aircraft operations.

The webcams will be up this year, they are working on them now. Four cameras I believe, including the "Blue Dot" camera. Looks like only one is up right now.

Looks like only the runway 18/36 camera is up so far. Lots of rain on the lens. A few planes are already parked.

I suspect it is probably more to protect their "brand". Concerts do it all the time. They need to be the only ones making money on their brand.
I have no problem with that.
