Oshkosh flight planning

Its great to work out all these options ahead of time, but then comes
the day of your flight. There is a 200-mile wide line of thunderstorms
across the route of flight and you wind up going via JOT or SSM. All
the tooth gnashing about where to stop on the direct route is out the
window. Plus you need to leave 45 mins earlier to keep meet your
schedule! :-( Been there, done that ;-) Don't forget to plan for
the unexpected & have a great flight!

Then there is what happened to me - I waited out a thunderstorm on the
departure airport, and after it passed I went out to pre-flight the
aircraft, only to find out that it had a broken muffler. Can't get the
part on a weekend, so I ended up driving. 14 hours of driving versus 4.5
hours of flying. Man, that sucks.
