For anyone that has actually slept in a tent at OSH, does it cool off
enough at night to sleep comfortably? If it's muggy all night, I might
just blast off and fly my homebuilt somewhere and get an air
conditioned hotel room. My plane is fast, so even if I have to go as
far as Milwalkee, it's no big deal. I just don't want to make
reservations, then have to deal with not being able to make it due to
weather enroute from SC. If I wait around until it's dark, and late,
then find out it's too hot to sleep well, im stuck in misery, misery
misery. Sweating all night.

I slept in a tent in 1991 and it was O.K. if you didn't get in the
bag. We had to go to bed at sundown because the mosquitos come out in
droves. I then got up about midnite or a little later and took a
shower which wasn't crowded at that time. I then went back and lay
down til sunrise and got out and looked at stuff before the crowds
were up. I was camped in the show camping which was right next to the
theatre in the woods. They'd let you park a homebuilt in there then,
but I think it has changed since then.
