Ok now we have several branches of this tree. Oh, well.

Question:

I will likely be in the "North 40" aircraft camping. If I arrive on
Wednesday, will there still be space? Or will I be turned away? I would
hate to fly there from New York and be turned away.

There will almost certainly be space. In the last few years I don't think the
plane camping area has ever filled. Some folks who have been going a for more
years than I have say that it used to fill up. Attendance is down the last few
years, and likely this year, too, so no worries about camping spots, I think.

See also Rick Durden's osh survival guide on the avweb site.

Last year there was an indicator on the airventure web site that was updated a
couple of times a day indicating how full the various areas were.

Arrive right after the air show, and there will be departures (who just vacated
camping spots) queued up ready to go. When they open the field for arrivals, be
orbiting Ripon so you're ready to arrive and suck up a spot.

Hey, you can probably sub-let a room in that big ol' Suburpan, Margy, and
double your money...

Arrive right after the air show, and there will be departures (who just
vacated
camping spots) queued up ready to go. When they open the field for
arrivals, be
orbiting Ripon so you're ready to arrive and suck up a spot.

Personally, I think this is a bad idea. Orbiting Ripon for any length of
time is exhausting (and potentially dangerous, as we all circle that 3-meter
dot in the sky), and you are not assured of a spot by arriving after the
show.

The volunteers seem to be extremely reluctant to "in-fill" camp sites after
the show, although I don't know why that is. (Margy? Ron? Can you fill
this gap for me?)

I think you're ALWAYS better off arriving as early as possible. The field
opens at 7-ish, and I've never seen anyone turned away that arrived at that
time.

Margyu, Ron, and I all work the Vintage parking (read: south end of Rwy 18/36).
I believe that you're referring to the GA parking, which is under the auspices
of a different parking group.

In the Vintage area, unless there are tiedowns in the spot (or other evidence of
occupancy like tents...), we *will* consider it a "fill-in-able" spot.
