Incredible Pix: Oshkosh AirVenture Dreams Take Flight

Even though we're less than halfway through it, this year's Oshkosh AirVenture has been one for the ages. There are some incredible airplanes!see them here!for sure, but even more than that, this year's show has been characterized by an enthusiasm for personal flying, from ultralights to single-pilot jets, that defies easy understanding. Despite challenges for the activity we love so dearly, or perhaps because of that adversity, the pilots and owners and airplane nuts who came to OSH are more engaged, involved and enthused than we've seen in years. And while it's hard to describe exactly how we know that, we can say this: Check out these photos by renowned aviation photographer Jim Koepnick and we guarantee you'll understand.
