Does anyone have experience making the trek? We're concerned about:
- the campground filling up (we're probably not going till the second weekend),
- the actual flight into Oshkosh (is it reasonable for two 200+ hour pilots to make that journey?),
- what the commute would be like to drive back and forth between Appleton- and find parking each day, and
- if it's reasonable to plan to be there about 2.5 days (or is that just way too short to make sense).

Just an option, but I am renting a fully-equipped trailer from a local RV place, which will be delivered to a nearby campground. I figure it will cut down on the commute. If you want some details, you can contact me at curtiswashdc at-sign yahoo dawt com.
As I've said in the past, I've flown Good Dog before - thanks for making it available!
Thanks for the offer! I think we're going to give it a go-- and hope that we can arrive at a time that things are 1) not as busy, and 2) the spots are not filled!
I'm planning on going this year too, though not flying in. Thought about going in a friend's J-5, but we decided it would be too painful (from VA).
I found your site while looking for pilots to invite to http://www.howitflies.com
The site is a kind of Wikipedia for aircraft- articles that anyone can
edit or comment on featuring facts, opinions, photos and videos of
airplanes. Whether someone is gathering information on a plane they would like to fly or buy, or just wants to think about flying on a rainy day, it will be a fun resource.
It hasn't really launched yet, but I'm asking some web savvy pilots such as yourself to come by and give it a try. I would appreciate any comments you might have. Feel free to mention in your blog if you like it.
Thanks,
Keith West
