N40CM is registered, This is first time for flying the RV4 since I acquired her, however she has been there before. I flew to Osh in 2015 with my Homebuilt Sonerai, Looking forward to doing the trip again!

I spoke with EAA about this a couple days ago and have an update. Those who park their aircraft in the special RV-4 40th anniversary parking area will be provided a camping space to pitch a tent in the homebuilt camping area. The most likely location is right by the Homebuilt Camping Pavilion, which is at the west end of the Papa 1 taxiway. Another possibility if it's needed is an area located in the southwest portion of homebuilt camping. More details soon, once we have them from EAA.
The RV-4 40th anniversary aircraft special parking area will be located close to where the Van's tent used to be (note that they've relocated all the vendors from that area this year to where the federal pavilion used to be). So, that's on the south side of the P1 taxiway right by the warbirds area and close to the flightline. In the past there was a Subway in that same spot - so if you remember that, you know the spot.
We're pretty excited, and we have a call planned with EAA this coming week to some get more stuff nailed down. Devin from Columbia, SC will be flying his RV-4 in, and have agreed to help coordinate things. He and I will post more info as soon as we have it!
Meanwhile, if you've not yet signed up to bring your RV-4 and park it in the anniversary parking, please go ahead and do so! Again, here's the link:

Helping Coordinate the Celebration of the RV-4
As Greg said, I am pleased to help organize the 40th anniversary festivities of the RV-4. The most important part will be owner and pilot participation! We have a facebook group for RV-4 Pilots. I would also encourage RV-4 pilots and builders using that social media platform to join. I have the link attached below. We have been using polling methods and group messaging on the facebook group to help organize our thoughts for the meet up at Oshkosh. More to come later this week. In the mean time, stay tuned and please join the RV-4 Pilots facebook page (and answer the admin questions) to get in the conversation there as well!!!

Does this mean we are being provided free camping, or should we go ahead and purchase the standard week long camping pass?

Hold off for another day or so
Johnnie,
Hold off another couple days or so on the camping pass. I am waiting to see if there will be any deals or special areas. That will be discussed this week on the conference call. I personally haven't purchased any week passes or camping passes yet.

I'll hold off on the camping pass. My Airventure Cup Race pass included the week long entrance pass, so I'm good on that.
Thanks for the update...
