DVD of OSHKOSH 2005
"Jay Honeck" wrote in message
oups.com... Is that EAA DVD of OSH 2005 any good? We bought the 2004 edition last year, and I must admit that I found it to be quite dull. I think my problem is that, after 23 years, I don't go to AirVenture to watch Sean D. Tucker fly inverted snap rolls anymore. I'm more about seeing the displays, the vendors, the North 40, and the people -- and that just doesn't translate onto video. The producers naturally concentrate on the "action" stuff, and that, to me, was just boring. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" At the moment, I happen to be working on a "New Members Guide on DVD" project for my flying club. Ok, you guys help me get there and I'll produce the video. I wonder if EAA is hiring? Jay Beckman PP-ASEL AZ Cloudbusters Chandler, AZ |

I love the airshow It's the only time of day that you can take a
shower without having to line up. Shhhh!!!! That's a secret!!!! You have to have gone to OSH a couple years before you learn that. You're not allowed to tell others about it.... Oshkosh Rules! |

I went to Oshkosh this year for the first time. WOW! I'm building an
RV-9A and wanted to talk to the guys at Van's Aircraft in person. I have my own collection of Oshkosh photos at: http://www.smittysrv.com/photo_album.asp?id=27 There are other Oshkosh pic links on the right margin of the website. |

DVD of OSHKOSH 2005
As a Safari helicopter owner and publisher of the Experimental Helo
magazine, we go to Oshkosh pretty much every year. This year we bought the DVD and were greatly disappointed. No rotorcraft at all inspite of our being asked to and did perform a fly-by down the main runway two days in a row. Worse yet was the too long aerobatic coverage, with NO coverage of the Awards and then to add insult to injury, the @#$% Jet powered truck, which I believe has no business at an aviation event. There was coverage of the Mooneys and the Bonanzas, but essentially no coverage of the homebuilts. EAA used to be short for EXPERIMENTAL Aviation Association. You sure couldn't relate that title to the DVD content. I think if the current trend continues they need to change the name to be more consistent with the organizational behavior and focus. Maybe something like WAF&JD: Warbirds, Aerobatics, Ford and John Deere. -- Stuart Fields Experimental Helo magazine P. O.

Is that EAA DVD of OSH 2005 any good? I don't like the 30+ bucks, but what the heck. Same price + shipping as 16R. My gal had a good thought. She said we'll get onesixright for us, but we should get the Oshkosh DVD for friends and family (6 copies) - since I was actually at Oshkosh and have never even been to California, let alone VNY. OSH 2005 or 16R for my peeps? I'm leaning toward EAA's OSH 2005 DVD. Montblack |
