Diana has sent me some pictures from OSH. She asked me to post them here since she doesn't know how to do that from her phone. So here goes:

First, the campsite:

Spike, y'all come. :)

Brian, thank you so much for posting the pictures for me.:yes: :cheerswine:

By the time Kent made it to the Citabria it was dark and I couldn't get a good picture of him with the iPhone. He and my neighbor were still talking when I went to bed. :D

No, wait... Kent was... talking?!?
 
And he got there with like 2 minutes to spare before they shut down the airport.... :D
 
Here's another pic from Diana: Gil Valez (TeenDoc) and Sue at the Cessna pilots dinner

Wish I were there.

Kent offered some very interesting insights into General Aviation. And while everyone was snoring in Row 518 on the North 40 at OSH, we had a very technical discussion that ran til Midnight CDT. Pity I had already planned to leave on Tuesday morning, because I did want to see the Live PodCast this coming Friday.

Brian, thanks again for posting these for me. :)

The first one is MRE's for dinner with Ken Ibold. The second one is Ken showing Tom his fancy new phone.

Diana, great seeing you and Tom again! Thank YOU for the hospitality!!
 
Hi Everyone,

We made it back safely home to MDT (Harrisburg, PA). The tailwind and temperature at 9,000' were great, and within under 7 hours were on the ground with our trusty 172M. And just behind my wife and daughters on United 512 as they landed from O'Hare. I'll be back to OSH in 2010!

That's great! Glad you're returning! (You do know that it will be held in the same place in 2009 too, right?:yes::rofl:)
 
Good to see another PA pilot on the board. Welcome Arnold. Was gonna ask if you flew out of Morgantown but see your at MDT. Gotta be cheaper than CXY.
 
Adam, Avflight at MDT has been extremely good to us. The FBO UFS AERO at CXY (formerly the Harrisburg Jet Center) has not been GA-Friendly, and we can only hope they come around, (- or wonder if exterminating GA was their plan all along). There are a great many pilots in PA that need to hear about POA.

Safe and Happy Flying,
Arnold
 
We took off from OSH this morning in the Cessna 182 and we're enjoying breakfast at DBQ. Bruce is flying the Citabria home for me. More pictures coming up after we get home.
 
I was watching the F-22 demonstration and just missed Diana'a presentation. Maybe next year.:blueplane:
 
Here's some more pictures from my iPhone:

These are of the blimp.

Wow Diana looks like you had a great time.

:) Brook, it was a great time for being with people. And I met some great new people, too...folks like Arnold who was my neighbor and is posting here now.
 
Here's a picture of Kim and Phil near their Birddog.
