The paint is dry on the freshly painted runway dots at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, a sure sign that this year’s EAA Oshkosh AirVenture extravaganza is ready to go. The fun starts on July 25 and runs through the following weekend. In addition to a number of military display teams, AirVenture will be hosting more than 10,000 aircraft at Wittman and surrounding airports, along with hundreds of thousands of attendees. At the show, EAA will open its Education Center for the first time at AirVenture, where it will host the EAA Pilot Proficiency Center. The weather forecast for the week, though we are still more than 10 days out, looks promising, with warm (not hot) temps in the outlook along with fair skies. Plane & Pilot will be there all week. Hope to see you there!
