What? But the French can't possibly be coming to OSH in 19 GA aircraft.

Hasn't someone told them that GA is dead in France?

Seriously, there are times I regret living on the far West Coast of
Canada; OSH is one of them!

Hey -- 19 aircraft represents a measurable percentage of their fleet!

;-)

I think it's going to be way cool to see some of those older birds. Never
heard of a "Flamingo" before, but they'll be flying one or two of them.

There's always the "executive mail tube" option?

Ah, but what a chance for some great cross country flying Brian. True,
you're farther than me (left coast US, California central valley),
"only" 1500 nm or so, depending on what weather needs to be flown
around. Have done it twice in rental planes (can you say expensive?).
This year will be much cheaper on a per-hour bases flying the Arrow.

If you ever get a chance, even to fly commercially, we wouldn't hold
that against you. It's well worth the trip.
