Default My dad and I are going again this year

We went last year and had a blast! He lives in Boise, Idaho, so he flies to San Jose, CA to pick me up. After a good nights rest at my house, we head East to enjoy the journey with the only goal being to enjoy every minute. We are going to visit with my brother and his family before barrowing his truck to complete the journey to OSH/EAA/Airventure. If you see N124WB on your ADS-B ... that's us! C-Ya!

Default Flying from Logan Utah. Route advice??

I've been to OSH twice before but haven't flown myself yet. My wife has never been. We are flying our RV9A from Logan Utah KLGU on Thursday or Friday (depending on weather) with an overnight stop for an early arrival at OSH Saturday morning. What is the "northern route" some have been mentioning? We currently are thinking of going Casper, Rapid City, Huron Regional KHON and then an overnight stop before KOSH. Any suggestions for a better route or overnight stop? Is a route more along I80 rather than I90 preferable? Why? Thanks

Once you get past Rock Springs, its pretty much downhill all the way to OSH. I usually just go DIRECT to OSH from there, and pick a fuel stop that looks convenient in Iowa or southern Minnesota. This is really between 80 and 90, and there's no need to stick over one of the other.

Heading up Thursday the 20th with our "advance team" to set up camp for about two dozen kids and a dozen or so adults. My RV for this trip has six wheels and is well over gross. With all we have to bring, flying isn't an option anymore. No AvaitionNation planes there yet (next year) but Eagle's Nest One will be there. Hope to see a bunch of you!
