The Idiot without the NOTAM

I can't believe that there isn't some serious enforcement going on. Anyone
who flies to Oshkosh and doesn't have the NOTAM with them should get their
ticket revoked for 5 years.

Now if you can only track down the lady who literally READ the OSH
NOTAM to another pilot over the radio, en route to OSH (after she had
downloaded it -- in flight -- to her PDA), you'll be truly performing a
public service.

We also heard a bunch of guys (presumably en route to OSH) who were
landing at a towered airport and were having to read the arrival
procedure and frequencies to their buddy, who clearly had no sectional
and no clue what he was doing.

It's scary to think that people launch toward OSH without studying the
NOTAM in advance -- but some do.

Probably the same sort of a deal that SnF had with the FAA back in the
1988-1992 era. "don't ticket the overweight ultralights". Those were the
years when ULs were the big thing at SnF, and if there was even the rumor
of FAA sanctions for the illegal aircraft, the place would have been empty.

And if anybody asked them, they would claim to be good pilots.

I'd love to hear the answer from them to the question "what happened to
the preflight requirement?"

It was in the raw archives at the first call-up. When I created the clip
and posted the link here, I purposely abbreviated the entire tail ID since
I did not want to be the one responsible for this pilot's humiliation.

OK, found the exchange and edited the clip to only contain the relevant
communications for anyone interested in hearing it. Note that the LiveATC
OSH feed is monitoring a few different frequencies, so there are a couple
of sections where some of the ATC or pilot's comms are clipped.

Peter,

Incredible! And as has been mentioned in other threads, the controller
is way too accomodating. He should have turned him away.
