Oshkosh Update

Great Day on Wednesday. Absolutely perfect weather. 70 degrees with a nice breeze and puffy clouds in the sky. Met Jim and Jenny Stack today at the Aviat Husky booth. We had a great time talking 337 and finally meeting. They will fly back on Friday.

The DC 3 from Riverview Airport 08C flew in this morning. They had about 10 guys with them and some rookies to Osh Airventure. What a great way to come, in a DC 3. Plenty of camping room under the wings. They parked in the south 40 near a couple Albatross'.

Good airshow on Wednesday. We sat with Steve and Sandy Gufstason (sp) and watch the show again. The jet powered glider flew and lots of other stuff. There was a Beech Bonanza doing a show too. Quite amazing actually.

We attended the Vintage Aircraft Association picnic and met a good bunch of people. After dinner we came back to the VAA area and watched Andrew fly the Pitcarin Autogyro. Wow now that was a treat. If you are an EAA member there is an article in the last issue. Talk about a restoration project.

It has been really neat to talk to all the people interested in Skymasters and some of them have never been on the web site or message board. I have invited them all to join and participate. Several are owners of Skymasters.
