Oshkosh is in east-central Wisconsin on the shores of Lake Winnebago. Its unusual name has travelled far as the name of Oshkosh b'gosh clothing, and as a synonym for EAA Airventure, one of the world's great celebrations of aviation, held at the Wittman Regional Airport here. Oshkosh does not have any commercial air service, but Wittman Regional Airport (KOSH) can support any private aircraft that wish to land. If you plan to fly in here during Airventure, you will find yourself among tens of thousands of other aircraft doing the same thing. You absolutely must get the Airventure NOTAM from the Airventure website and follow it carefully. Regional commercial air service is available in Appleton (ATW) which is 20 minutes north. In some cases it may be worthwhile to use Milwaukee (MKE), 90 minutes south, or Green Bay (GRB), an hour to the north, and come the rest of the way by road.

Miss Muffet may seem like an unlikely name for a proud biplane, but if you listen to the MacMahans a bit, the name makes perfect sense. The owners of a beautiful blue and red 1941 Boeing A75N1 (PT17) Stearman, the two seat trainer bipe is powered by a Lycoming R680-4P-B4 and has received lavish care over the years from the MacMahan family. Back for its second year since a complete restoration, the proud Boeing Stearman drew admiring glances from thousands of pilots who came upon it... and devoutly wished for one just like it. While most folks know the Boeing Model 75 by the common name of "Stearman," it has worn a number of hats and been called a lot of names... (and a few of those weren't nice ones, if you learned to fly taildraggers in this bird). The US Army Air Corps designation for the A75N1 is "PT-17," the Navy designation is "N2S," and the Canadian military designation is "Kaydet." The Stearman was originally designed to ...

It's Summertime... And That Means That Oshkosh Is Right Around The Corner!! A few weeks ago, ANN's Paul Plack had the chance to sit down amid all the chaos of the spring airshow season and have a one-on-one chat with EAA Prez, Tom Poberezny... they covered some interesting topics... Homebuilding, the 51% Rule, and course, OSHKOSH 2008. For those of you leading VERY sheltered lives, Tom Poberezny was first elected president of EAA in 1989. Since that time, EAA claims that membership in the organization has increased 40 percent, to 170,000 members worldwide. An accomplished aviator in his own right, Poberezny was a member of the U.S. National Unlimited Aerobatic Team that captured the World Championship in 1972. The following year, he won the U.S. National Unlimited Aerobatic Championship. He subsequently flew for 25 years as one wing of the legendary Eagles Aerobatic Team (originally the Red Devils), the most successful civilian precision flying team in history. During his career with EAA, Poberezny has overseen a number of the organization s milestone events. In the late 1970s he spearheaded EAA s first major capital campaign, which supported construction of the current EAA Aviation Center headquarters and museum complex at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, Wis. In 1992, he led the creation of EAA s Young Eagles, which has become the most successful aviation youth program in history. Realizing the importance of mentoring to the future of aviation, EAA aimed to give one million kids between the ages of 8 and 17 an airplane flight by the centennial of powered flight on Dec. 17, 2003. The one millionth Young Eagle was flown in October 2003, celebrating the efforts of 85,000 EAA volunteers to reach the goal. The Young Eagles Program continues to fly 100,000 young people annually. One of Poberezny s most demanding roles has been chairman of the annual EAA AirVenture Fly-In Convention for more than 25 years. During that time, EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, as it is now known, has grown to be the world s largest annual aviation event, attracting an attendance of 750,000 from 68 nations and 10,000 airplanes for one spectacular week every summer.

Lakeland Got Off To A Muted Start... But There Were Some Pleasant Surprises While Lakeland's annual Fly-In is not without its fair share (OK, more than its fair share) of problems, it is pretty much the lead off event for a new year's fly-in season... and thus looked forward to with great anticipation. This year was no exception. We saw the first sight of the Pilatus PC-12NG, the Liberty Vanguard, Garmin's AMAZING SVT and just as it all concluded, ANN Managing Editor, Rob Finfrock, got his Sport Pilot's license... so despite all the nonsense we usually have to deal with, we not only found a way to have a good time this year, we did better than most--especially with Rob's triumph to brag about. So... today, Aero-TV does something a little different... here are some of the sights and sounds of the 2008 Lakeland Fly-In, narrated by Paul Plack and EXPERTLY shot by Aero-TV Videographers Nathan Cremisino, Jim Grosser and Laura Jobe... all under the supervision of Aero-TV''s Sr. Producer, Sarah "The Whip" Curtiss. Much of the footage has been seen, in bits and pieces in recent Aero-TV features and there is FAR MORE to come, as well, from our work at this event. We have some exciting footage currently being prepared for future Aero-TV programming... including an interesting interview with EAA's Tom Poberezny about the one Fly-In we can ALL get excited about... Oshkosh! So... Let's Join Aero-TV For A Video Salute To The Start Of The 2008 Fly-In Season! FMI: www.eaa.org Copyright 2008, Aero-News Network, Inc., ALL Rights Reserved.
