Ford is a sponsor of EAA’s AirVentures and our booth will be located a short walk from their display. All of our cars present will be Ford-powered, and we will not have an 818 or GTM in our display.

I will be there because we will have several planes for display at the show, but I’m getting there from Indy in my 818S...if you guys will like one at the booth just let me know

If anyone can get me a Draco hat, that would be awesome!!

[Jim Schenck]

Jet,

With Ford being the title sponsor for the show we have a gentleman's agreement to only bring Ford powered cars so we can't have the 818 in the booth, same goes for the GTM unfortunately.

[Jetfuel]

Thanks Jim, I understand and appreciate that.
I’ll guess I get to see the GTM In Kentucky then...

Actually, since the shows are back to back weekends the rig is going from OshKosh directly to Louisville so the cars at both shows will be the same.

Guys, sorry I can’t make it to this show. Lots going on at work. Next year for sure, it’s on my bucket list!!!

Quick question for Monday: how are the grounds? I know that Oshkosh got more than 5 inches of rain over the weekend, and I had heard all the grassy areas (including camping and parking) were saturated and closed! Have they opened up parking nearby? Still hoping to visit - if I can get in there!

[Jimtmich]

Looks like some muddy spots in the campground, but the Airventure goes on. They usually throw gravel or wood chips to make these situations passable.

Tuesday was a great day in Oshkosh! Cars and airplanes - what could be better? The first stop was the FFR exhibit and I got to spend some time with the Factory Five crew. Then I got my fill of airplanes... Here are a few photos:
