2016 EAA AirVenture Oshkosh fly-in

Wannafly just posted the first entry I have seen for the Oshkosh fly-in, so I figured I’d start the thread about the 2016 EAA AirVenture Oshkosh fly-in.

Thanks for the early warning, I’m planning on getting an AC Room at the University!

Dang, they have already closed the AC Dorm rooms at the University! After checking the Dates, I can’t go this year! July 26th is at the beginning of the week, and I can’t afford to miss my Anniversary again!!

I don't understand what you are inferring, Paul.

I was implying that you must be "smart as a ----".

[Paul Z]

That funny! Smart as a whip. I laughed so hard it brought tears to my eyes. 😂

Now, to Wannafly's questions about what to bring to Airventure. Here's a few tips:

First (middle and last!) is comfortable footwear. You will be walking. A lot! If you blister early in your stay, you will be in a world of hurt, literally. High quality walking shoes and socks are an absolute necessity.

Baby powder. It's usually very hot and humid at Airventure. This will give a little relief. If you know what I mean…

An old motorcycle traveling trick I used to do was to bring pants but buy t-shirts. Helps to keep the packing light, at least on the way out. I've also been known to box up dirty laundry and ship it home…
