Becca Posted July 1, 2022 Report Share Posted July 1, 2022 Excuse the hubris, I've seen a few posts about Oshkosh plans, but nothing about a get together (and have heard sadly it will be another pizza-party-free year.. but correct me if I am wrong), I would still like to visit with our MooneySpace friends at Osh! I assume @jetdriven would like the same, but he is not much of a planner. So I wanted to start this thread for the following purposes: 1. Anyone want to plan a dinner at Friar Tucks one night? Perhaps Monday or Tuesday? Say so here, and I will try to collect people together! 2. When you arrive, you can reply to this thread and post where you are parked. We will do the same. We will have a MooneySpace supply worth of Spotted Cow beer for anyone who stops by! Our current plan (weather luck permitting) is to be at Osh on Saturday through Thursday (camped in the N40 if N40 luck permitting.)

67 m20F chump Posted July 3, 2022 Report Share Posted July 3, 2022 I’m going to drive up with a travel trailer this year. I’m going to show up a few days early and play around in Wisconsin. Maybe check out Madison etc. my point is I should have a spot not that far from the action with a Joe jr. Grill and a truck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterl Posted July 3, 2022 Report Share Posted July 3, 2022 We are planing to come from Germany with our Acclaim. We will be camping with a group of planes from Europe organized by a German Plane & Pilot magazine. Will arrive hopefully on Monday. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptor05121 Posted July 3, 2022 Report Share Posted July 3, 2022 I got Friday-Saturday-Sunday off from work. I'm trying to decide if I can afford to fly the Mooney up there or just non-rev for free and find a place to crash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've never tried non-revving, but I've heard it can be pretty difficult even to get a jumpseat because, you know, its Oshkosh and the pilots are getting there like moths to a flame.

T. Peterson Posted July 4, 2022 Report Share Posted July 4, 2022 I would rather go to the Dentist than Jumpseat anywhere! Torrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
