Oshkosh 2025

Anyone interested in tickets to the Vans banquet tonight or the RV10 social Tuesday? I'm happy to take $50 each for them (my cost) but really want them to get put to use.
PM. direct contact and I will send you the eventbrite tickets.
I had plane issues that prevented departure

That’s such a bummer. Hopefully you get mended quickly.

You got it backwards— RV-10 dinner tonight, Van’s banquet Tuesday.
 
Just booked a flight into Chicago to drive up tomorrow evening to be there on Tuesday. Any suggestions?

Why wait until Tuesday? O’Hare to OSH is about 3 hours, Midway adds an hour or three because of construction. I jest … about an hour. I don’t think Scholler registration closes at 8.
 
Ultralight cam…
Vision Jet stuck in the mud on the South End grass taxiway to the South 40.
 
So... depending on time of arrival (if schedule allows me to depart), Fond du Lac might have to be my destination. How crazy is that compared to OSH proper?
 
Weather has been good. Some rain last night (Saturday). Friends from Maryland had some challenges getting here. Weather was pretty active Friday, Saturday and Sunday in Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. The Canadian wildfire smoke is pretty obvious tonight.

Got to drop in and say hi to Jay Honeck. Talked to lots of interesting folks including a guy from Switzerland and another whose grandad had a dairy farm near my grandfather’s. Looking forward to seeing POA folks.

It’s filling up here and should be a great show!
 
Made it in 10 minutes before the field closed. I'm camped WAY down in the South 40. Row 156.

Scared myself with weather today. Not sure what is about me and Oshkosh.

We walked all the way down there around noon.

It is a LONG way!

Camp Scholler registration is open 6 AM to 11 PM daily, and those with RVs who arrive outside those hours usually just camp right in the entrance parking lanes until it opens up in the morning.

Never been, but based on the fact that EAA has been trying to accommodate everyone at OSH for the past several years, and the amount of traffic I saw as I was watching the arrivals online tonight, FLD is a nothing burger.

There were 111 arrivals at FLD today during the hours OSH was open (and about 9 outside those hours). The busiest hour (3-4 PM) was 19 arrivals, one every three minutes or so.

I'm shooting for Wednesday morning arrival, currently packing. I have a little shelf behind the seat about the volume of two bread loaves, plus whatever I can stuff into a human torso-sized dry bag and strap into my front seat. HBC sign is printed... and laminated (open cockpit. :ihih: )
 
So got my first trip to out to Basler today. N40 has filled up nicely but still lots of room in GAC in the grass. The hard ramp by Basler is full. I estimate that HBC is only about 2/3 to 3/4 full. Still haven’t scoped out Vintage (although we’ll be over there tonight to visit the pirate bar) or S40. Pedestrian traffic seems normal, maybe slightly under from the past couple of years.
 
I hear it's getting rowdy (er, uh, peaceful protesting, I mean) but it's 5:00 somewhere at osh.....................

Where’s the pirate bar? Found the beer coffin yesterday and feel like I need to keep exploring.

S40 has filled all the way to the southern boundary, but as of airshow time they still had nooks and were accepting aircraft.
