Who's in for OSH '04?

Mary and I (and the Osh-kids) will be flying in on Monday, and staying
through the following Sunday...

(Our Rec.Aviation party is planned for Wednesday night, after the airshow,
at our campsite. Admission is a 6-pack of good beer!)

Jim and Gail in the BlueOnBlue-OneEightyTwo will be with you at the Pool Party
on Sunday, Monday to Oshkosh, Thursday and Friday forums, and westbound Friday
afternoon.

Have you picked a "talk-to-me" frequency from that list I sent you yet?

Somebody suggested that we put RAP on a window sticker. I'll do that on the
"Oshkosh Bound" poster and have it up for download this afternoon (Sunday).

The Allison brothers (and our Dad this year) will be there. N119AZ, white
fixed gear C-182, parking at Fon du Lac, staying at Marion College. Planned
arrival is Monday, planned departure is Saturday. Actual arrival/departure
subject to whatever mother nature throws in our path on the trek from the
left coast.

Hope to see you all at Jay's campsite Wednesday night.

I'd suggest folks flying in post their tail numbers since you can go to the
ticket booths and ask one of the fine volunteers to lookup where a plane is
parked. Worked like a charm finding Jay & Mary's campsite last year.

If it comes back on line in time... C182 N282ES (some of you will
recognize this n-number from several AOPA videos)

Arrow IV N920DM*

I'm still not sure if I'll be flying N93332 or driving the Miata again to
OSH this year. I'm hesitant on my first flight into OSH which would be solo.
It'll also depend if I can get time off work...

You gotta fly, man. There's nothing to it!

I'm trying to get Mary's gumption up to give it a go this year -- although,
to be honest, I think it'll be harder on me to be a passenger. Other years
she has flown out -- but never in.

She knows the procedures, she has been through it multiple times. Put
that video cam to use with one of the kids in the back recording the
whole episode. Plug the intercom in so as to have the dialog.
She has to do it!!
We can even present her and any other first timer with an award on
Wednesday (don't ask me what it would be, I haven't thought that far
ahead, yet)

How about a round peg hammered into a too small, square hole. Kinda fits
trying to arrive at OSH. g

Any suggestions/recommendations on where to acquire square holes?

Jay,

Any stats on when "good" times are? We arrived about 6:00 PM Monday
night last year, and it was a piece of cake. Just before the initial
entry point, we had C180 traffic on our right and a Grumman on our left.
(And some dude in a Bo on an IFR approach. Why, I don't know.
Weather was clear and 100.) I was initially given the numbers on 9, but
then told to hit the white dot, cause the Bo was closing on me. Really,
was not a big deal. We did have our heads on swivels, though. (I'd be
interested to hear about the traffic at other times.)
