Had a great flight here with Carol in the RV-14. Two legs, with one GPS approach into Danville, Il. Stumbled upon a really cool war bird restoration shop that had a T-6, P-51, and a Messerschmidt 109 under restoration. Got a shop tour by Steve Schultz, who also built and RV-8.
The weather cooperated and we were able to VFR up the shoreline and see Chicago, then cut inland and entered a left base for 27. Lots of volunteers here already, but not many airplanes. It's the earliest we've been here, and it was kind of fun to park at the Van's tent with no one there!
Good weather this morning, but the forecast for later today calls for lots of rain, perhaps 1-2".
HBC pavilion looks great and we are headed there this am.

Only GA camping is at capacity. HBC is open.All aircraft camping at KOSH was full sometime before 6P tonight. Heard it monitoring the FISK arrival... Schiller is hopping too....

Apparently atis and Fisk were turning away all campers despite only GAC being full?
Big crowd around the 12is this morn.
....had a great time with my co-pilot Tom Wilson, whose vastly greater experience helped me with weather decisions and other aspects of flight planning. What a way to spend a week!
This isn't our first rodeo, but I enjoy learning new Oshkosh tricks each year. How do you get your dog into the show? Either put it in a pink baby carriage and walk right in, or slap a "service dog in training" vest on it. For the latter, we saw a couple that were totally true and more than a couple that I called complete BS.
