AirVenture Oshkosh 2010
There are several SOAPA members attending AirVenture 2010 this year. This thread will serve as a communication link for those Skymaster lovers to share information about arrival and departure details for Oshkosh 2010.
Some SOAPA members are joining the C2O, Cessna's 2 Oshkosh, mass arrival on Saturday July 24. This participation will bring those Skymasters to Whitman Field that Saturday afternoon and will be parking in the C2O area of the North 40. We should be settled in by mid afternoon or early evening. Are you attending AirVenture 2010? Please respond to this thread and let everyone know your plans or proposed plans as things do happen. I suggest that we try to get together at some point during the show. Right now I am planning to arrive with C2O and depart on Tuesday, returning on Saturday for the final day. Anyone else have a schedule yet? This year is going to be a great show. Lot's of action that can be reviewed on the AirVenture website http://www.airventure.org/ plus some new, never before done at OSH happenings. Lots of info on the website about attending, flying in, survival guide, schedules, events, seminars and workshops. Come join the fun. Here is my contact info: Cell phone 616-401-3637 See ya at OSH

This will be my first time to KOSH. I will be flying out of Houston, not sure of the schedule yet... possibly Friday departure. Anyone else coming out of the South / East Texas area?
Any suggestions to an Oshkosh newbie? |

Mary and I are planning on arriving KOSH before the air show Monday, and will probably leave Wednesday morning. It sounds like you're going to be around for the Chicago concert anyway, Herb! Paul N2576S

Thanks Ed |

OSHKOSH is under water - NO PARKING!
UPDATE - OSH is not accepting inbound flights because of the devastating rain events over the last few days and most recently last night. AirVenture is not allowing any parking on grass until further notice. All aircraft are parked parallel to runways on the only high ground not saturated by rain. The only way in is if someone else leaves. They are diverting traffic to surrounding area airports but it's only a matter of time for those to be full also. The Cessna Mass arrival is delayed 48 hours as of just a few minutes ago. All mass arrivals were canceled today and now scheduled for Monday. It is not looking good, the only bright news is that the rain has stopped and the forecast looks like it will be dry for the next 4 days. At least that's what I read in the forecast. More rain on Tuesday PM - Wednesday AM.
The gathering point for the Cessna's is Juneau, WI just south of OSH. There are 40 or so Cessna's there waiting for OSH to open. Some of the folks have rented cars to drive up to AirVenture and look at the situation. Others are starting engines for an approved Cessna formation fly by at AirVenture to just have something fun to do. The OSH tower has given an OK for 25 flyers to make a 1000 ft pass over the field in formation and then back to Juneau to wait it out. It's a mess, there is info on the OSH 365 http://twitter.com/EAAupdate/statuses/19387784462 site and check NOTAM updates before departing of AirVenture to be sure you have the latest info. If you have any questions feel free to call me 616-401-3637. I am still in Grand Rapids, waiting here seems a lot easier than in a wet tent. http://airventuresiteupdate.blogspot.com/ http://www.airventure.org/aircraft/parking_status.asp That's all for now............

Sunday Update
They are parking homebuilts and kits this morning but it is slow going. All the warbirds are at alternate locations right now so the areas that the warbirds normally use are being consumed by aircraft waiting for parking and camping. Listen to ATC and you learn that the traffic load is moderate and they are not letting anyone off the hard surface, no grass turnoffs. EAA is hoping to have some parking for general aircraft camping by Monday. Just talked to Basler and Orion and both are full, they are not accepting any reservations at this time. All twin engine aircraft are being diverted to Fon du lac and Appleton.
Check for updates on the links above in the earlier message.

Have fun. I would have loved to come see all your 337's, but it looks like work will keep me away from Oshkosh. Too bad. Next year, hopefully.
