“Doc” won’t make it this year, unfortunately. Had engine issues leaving Kalamazoo and landed in Grand Rapids. The engine is being removed and shipped off for inspection and repairs.

The National Weather Service in Green Bay has informed EAA of a significant storm threat beginning at approximately 8 p.m. Central Time tonight. As a result, EAA AirVenture Oshkosh will be closing most operations for the day at 5 p.m.

Among the operations affected:
- The afternoon air show will end at 5 p.m. today.
- There is no evening programming tonight, including the night air show, Theater in the Woods, and Fly-In Theater.
- Transportation systems will continue to operate as long as weather conditions allow.
- Exhibit buildings, restaurants and other services will close at 5 p.m.

The airport will reopen for departures at 5 p.m. until 8 p.m. or as long as practical. Pilots who have aircraft remaining at Wittman Regional Airport are reminded to check their tiedowns so they are secure.

The National Weather Service predicts that the storm front should arrive between 8-10 p.m. and continue until after midnight. EAA will continue to monitor conditions and alert those camping on the grounds as to any additional details as necessary.

Because of the cancellation of evening activities on Wednesday, July 28, AirVenture wristbands will be honored for admission on Thursday, July 29. Those Wednesday wristbands will be exchanged for Thursday wristbands at all admission gates. The night air show has been rescheduled for Thursday evening, July 29.
