EAA has confirmed that we have meeting space on Friday, 7/26 at 5:30 PM (until 6:45) in Pavillion 2. Here is the description that it is listed on the EAA web site and show program as:

"If you are a Skymaster or O-2 owner, pilot or enthusiast, or are just interested in learning about the aircraft, join our group at Oshkosh for an informal hangar flying session and discussion."

I am thinking we might draw some other folks in who are just interested in Skymasters, as well as folks that don't visit our web site. Do you folks think that I should plan to put together some sort of short (10 min) presentation on Skymasters for those that are not familiar with the bird? If so, what would you suggest for topics? How do you think we should handle the rest of the time? Should we have an agenda? if so, what should be on it?

Any thoughts or contributions would be much appreciated.

Also, who all thinks that they might be interested and able to make this time? Do we want to plan dinner afterwards?

Please let me know what you think.

Kevin

P.S. Thanks again to Scott Smith for suggesting and helping arrange this time. -KM

Lightbulb A thought

Perhaps you could talk about the message board,
and maybe Bob could talk about the TC fly-in.

why not talk about the aeroplane.

Dinner after / for sure / Wendies has a special on. Two/for one and you can "biggie it" for 30cents.

Too bad Dave "wendies" couldn't join us but he ate too many of his own hamburgs now and is in hamburg heaven.

OSHKOSH/BASLERS

BASLERS WILL LET YOU RESERVE A SPOT ON THEIR RAMP. SO EVEN THOUGH THEY MIGHT SAY THE AIRPORT IS CLOSED DO TO OVERCROWDING YOU CAN STILL GET IN. YOU ARE ALSO ABLE TO COME AND GO MUCH EASIER THAN AT THE GENERAL AIRCRAFT PARKING OR CAMPING AREA. I HAVE EVEN CAMPED AT BASLERS BEFORE BUT THE WALK TO THE SHOWER IS A LONG ONE. LAST YEAR THEY CHARGED $20 PER DAY. GREG

Smile Oshkosh

I will be at Oshkosh manning one of the NASA displays (Aviation Weather Information in the Cockpit) as part of the NASA weather accident prevention program. It would be nice to get together and meet other Skymaster owners in person. I will be at the North bldg.#63, from Tuesday the 23rd to Saturday the 27th, stop by and say hello.
Would like to participate in any organized functions that the group can come up with.

I cannot fly my 68 Skymaster to the event because FAA medical branch temporarily ground me. I can only fly with an appropriately rated pilot with a current medical, even though I am fit to fly. Go figure!

Kitchen Pass

Folks:

It looks like I got my kitchen pass from the Mrs. for OSH. I plan to come in early Thursday a.m. (via OSU on Wednesday night to see and stay with some family, so if anyone in that vicinity wants to tag along, I'll be happy to haul you along) and leave OSH Friday a.m. sometime.

Kevin / Bob, What's the latest head count, where are you tying down, will any spaces be reserved, and are you camping or hitting the hotels?

This will by my first OSH, so let me know the routine of what to expect, bring, etc.

Thanks,

Keven

Keven,

Everything I know about plans is either in this message thread or on the Calendar page. Bob, did you find out how we can park (camp) near each other, or is it just going to be luck...

Keven, Bob is the most regular OSH attendee that I know of on the board, so I will defer to him to answer your other questions. Last time I was there was early 80's, I suspect it has changed a bit since then.

Kevin (not Keven;-)

For those camping

see below for copy of email from EAA regarding additional spaces.

We need to have our eaa numbers and when the first AC arrives they reserve based on the EAA memberships and AC registration. You tell the line person when you park the next XX spaces will be reserved and has be authorized by (see below).

Should have a cell phone handy so we can find out where the 1st AC parked. This is the way you grab a few spots. I expect to be in Tuesday noon sometime wx permitting. Coming from KIAG > OSH. expect to arrive around 11-12 am. Assuming the winds our out of the west should get a straight in over the lake.

if you want to email me at bobcook@oii.net I will compile the info on excel and keep updating it here on the web.

name (s) AC registration EAA reg # and date/time arriv.

fill in the blanks

=================== email from EAA:

Bob

You may do this.

Make sure you have your friends membership info (EAA Number). You can sign up for the sites using their EAA Membership number. When your friends arrive they can check in and finish the registration.

Our Plans

We had a hotel room in Ripon, for the weekend, but cancelled it since we had an illness in the family. We thought that might impact our ability to go to OSH. That issue is resolved. We are flying in on Friday AM, early, and staying through the meeting. We will then fly back.
We are planning on returning, either Saturday or Sunday. No, my wife doesn't like to camp (her idea of camping is a hotel without room service), and we think another skymaster owner is coming with us on Friday.
Unfortunately, if it rains, you folks will have to tough it out, and there is no dinner at The Treasury (unless Kevin's friend brings a car!!)
