Top Ten Things that Suck About Oshkosh
Good news is that according to an interview with Tom P. many upgrades
are in the works. EAA understands that if they want to continue to
attract attendees, they cannot be complacent and keep things as is.
Camping area expansion and upgrade was mentioned as was the new
control tower. Transportation on and off the field was another issue
mentioned.
If the continued popularity of satellite fields such as Appleton
continue to attract visitors who want to be close enough to Oshkosh
yet have the ability to come and go on their own schedules. More
facilities will probably be in the works there as well. The greater
number of folks commuting from Appleton to Oshkosh was noticeable this
year. Hotels were happy and more homes further away from the field
were available for rent and many are already contracted again for next
year.
Hopefully, things will continue to adapt and improve rapidly enough to
keep this event as popular as ever.
