AirVenture 2021

It's hard to believe it has been four years since I've been to AirVenture.  Someone asked me if I was going and I immediately said no.  But then I thought about it and said, why not go?  So I polished up th RV -- 24 man-hours -- and flew to Oshkosh.

Not wanting to participate in the Battle of Britain over Ripon on Sunday, I flew in Monday.  Bruce flew commercial into Milwaukee, rented a car, and both of us camped by my plane in Homebuilt Camping.  We weathered the massive thunderstorm Wedneday night in our tents.  I flew out Saturday after they opened the field at 12:30.

What did I do for almost five full days?   I watched the afternoon airshows plus the night airshow Thursday.  I went to a bunch of forums.  I checked out the big four vendor buildings at least twice each.  I went to the EAA museum.  I drank beer at the RV Social Monday night.  I drank beer at the SOS Brothers Tent.  I went to the Ultralight area.  I checked out the Warbirds area.  I walked the entire homebuilt parking/camping area.  Walked, walked, walked!
