Madison after flying in there due to relatives in that part of the
state.

I know the air conditioned dorms are sold out and I'll be calling on
the other ones tomorrow, but I'm interested to find out if there are
any other options that have transportation available to and from the
show.

I know I'm late in booking this, but I didn't know I'd be an aircraft
owner until recently so I missed out on booking last Summer.

Camping is probably out of the question, but I'm open to all other
lodging ideas.

(apologies if this shows up multiple times, my software hasn't shown
any results from the previous 3 attempts)
What about just pitching a tent, or throwing a tarp over the wing? Just take some padding for the sleeping bag, as the ground does get rather hard. Here is what surprises me: THis is your 6th OSH, and youre still fixin to do 5 days! About 2 days and one night is about all I can take. Too much walking, standing, and the food choices aint all that great. I think I have also been there 5 times in the past 8 yrs. In 2 days, I can see all that I want to.
