I got the flight plan all done, I have been reading the Notam like crazy and feel ready for the flight. Now the big question I will flying into Oshkosh on Sunday the 23rd. I know the show doesn't open till Monday so do the fine powers to be still charge you for sunday the 23rd or do you start paying on the 24th? :dunno:

Thanks Mike

The way I remember last year, even though there was officially no show on Sunday they still wanted to see the wrist band for the week. If you have your Monday wrist band you'll be OK.

I may not be comming at all. Long story, but If I fly I don't have a co-pilot which I'm not comfortable with flying the first time into Osh w/o or I have to find another way there. Anyone want to jump in the plane along the way or pick me up from a commercial flight at O'hare or MKE????

Missa

If you want to show up early (Thurs in Juneau for formation training you can take the class also). Arrive in OSH on Sat noon (camp at the cessna base camp)and leave Wed night (or you can get another ride out) I can pick you up at MKE.

If you aren't comfortable with flying into OSH, you could fly into FLD. They have camping on the field. I think there is a bus that runs on a somewhat regular schedule up to OSH if you still wanted to stay on the OSH airport.

I'll be driving up on Friday 21 July, and going right past ORD and MKE and have plenty of room.

Missa,

I would LOVE to have another pilot with me to help watch for traffic as it'll be my first time too. I'm planning on flying in from CAD on Sunday and then back to MSN Thursday, trading the plane for the car, so I can get you back out too if you need it. I'd be happy to meet you wherever along Lake Michigan or MSN. Will PM my cell number too you, call me soon!
