Default Attending OSHKOSH in 2007? ....YES

Attending: Yes

Mode of transport: '71 Arrow

Days: Arrive Sunday, depart following Sunday

Lodging: We don't need no stinking lodging! Give me the N40 and the
unwashed masses any day!

Wednesday party: Um...where else would I be? Besides, I think Jay
appointed me co-something as well. Oh, that's right, Jim points to the
cooler rapidly emptying of beer, I point to the beer store, Paul goes
and gets the beer...that's right. Hmmm, w/o the airplane of minivans,
Paul may need to borrow Jim's vehicle.

Distance: Argh...standby while I fire up the AOPA flight planner. Great
circle route from KLHM-KIOW-KOSH: 1568 nm. Route as planned: 1770 nm.
Actual route: TBD, ask me Wednesday night :-)

From: Sacramento California...well, technically, Orangevale but nobody
knows where that is so I go with Sacramento.

Years attending: Gasp...same as Paul, 5

Working at the event: No...OSH is a vactation, no work involved.

Big floppy hat: Sort of...not like Pauls...depends though, I may hit REI
and get something more along the lines of the Eric Rood model.

Cool. You'll have fun.

I'm there all week, so I'm quite happy just sitting some days, ...(all day)
....on the flight-line, watching planes taxi past, etc.

The air show is nice, but maybe use that time to look at the planes near the
flight-line. That way you're not sitting for 3 hrs. It's ok walking among
the (air show)spectators who are sitting - while you're looking at the
parked planes.

Double cool.

See you there!

...now if we could just have a high temps in the upper 60's, that would be
a "triple" cool.

Been meaning to come in previous years, but the proximity to my early-July Alaska trip has always made it slip past.

I must say, that a practical engineer and pilot combo, the super performance of airshows generally interests me less than
kicking the tires of warbirds.... something that seems more "approachable" for a piston-pounder-pilot.

I'm already suspecting that my brief pilgramage will be insufficient...
