Sorry. IFR/VFR thing. There is FISKE fix at Fisk. 6 DME on the OSH 247R.
I practice approaches at OSH and use FISKE as a lead in/setup/non published hold fix. Want to practice a hold near OSH without tying up their fixes or approaches? FISKE works. Although not on the plates it also gives Chicago an idea what my route is before I request the approach(s). There is also a DME fix called RIPON at Ripon. Jim "RST Engineering" wrote in message ...

That may well be, but Fisk has strobes, controllers under a beach umbrella,
railroad tracks, and grass. You proceed from Ripon to Fisk, not from RIPON to FISKE. Jim "Steven P. McNicoll" wrote in message nk.net... "RST Engineering" wrote in message ... Just for my nosiness, why are we calling Fisk Fiske now? FISKE is 6 DME from OSH on the 247 radial.

Would you care to bet a whole bunch of paper with old dead mens' pictures on
them that FISKE is not directly over the aforementioned beach umbrella? Jim "Steven P. McNicoll" wrote in message k.net... "RST Engineering" wrote in message ...

Neither. You proceed from Ripon up the railroad tracks to a point about 500
yards east of the beach umbrella directly over the railroad tracks. Have you ever flown the approach during the show? Jim "Steven P. McNicoll" wrote in message ink.net...
