Re: Possible F-15 demo return??
For those who never saw the F-15E demo, well... it was awesome. They carry more gas than pretty much anybody else in a pointy nose jet without external tanks, and it was like 12 minutes in afterburner of a 15 minute profile. Just not sure that after all the hours put on those jets in the sandbox war...

Re: Flight Line/Crowd Line Distance Question
Regarding EAA- at Oshkosh, if you are trying for show center, you will be missing out on a ton of opportunities afforded by having way more than a mile of vantage points to choose from. Go to Warbirds in the morning, you can stand less than fifty feet from Mustangs or Corsairs etc. starting up. At t...

Re: EAA Air Venture Oshkosh 2023
My warbirds take may be unpopular if you want to go to EAA and park on the front row and never leave all day/all week. If that's all you want to do then fine, but you're missing a ton of chances to go out to Warbirds at 7am and be just a few feet away from flights of Mustangs, Corsairs, T-6s, etc. s...

Re: EAA Air Venture Oshkosh 2023
[/img][/img][/img] I think EAA's reluctance to accept military demo teams is due to the size of the acrobatic "box" required. The Blue Angles apparently pursued this a few years ago and it was determined that residents in certain homes around the airport would need to vacate during the ai...

Re: EAA Airventure Oshkosh 2022
Hey everyone, 1 more day until OSH22. In the past you guys have posted the daily airshow schedules either in here and/or Facebook. You guys doing that again this year? I hope you do, personally I use that to plan my afternoon. Lol! Hope to see some of you around! If you're on the grounds, go to the...

Re: First Timer Tips for EAA AirVenture
Also worth a reminder, the specific daily airshow schedule is normally posted at the Homebuilts HQ building by lunchtime. Helpful while you're at Oshkosh, and also helpful to save a copy of if you're editing some photos weeks later and need a reminder about what a performer was that perhaps you had ...

Re: EAA Airventure Oshkosh 2022
Kinda nitpicking, but it was VFA-106 that did the Saturday night burner passes last time. The Growlers and F-35C have been putting on some pretty cool stuff, but they may be limited by the light conditions their profiles can be flown in. I can't wait to see what they come up with, though. Anybody wh...

Re: EAA Air Venture Oshkosh 2021
Probably worth a reminder, or especially for anybody that is a first-timer, if you're on the field the daily show schedule with specific performers and times for their displays will be posted by noon at the Homebuilders HQ just to the west of the brown arch. I always go by there an hour or two befor...
