Today I took a quick flight over to OSH and back to pick

someone up, and got to see the grounds.  Couldn't see a

single camper yet.....so this years show must be a bust.

(kidding of course)  Anyway, the grounds look to be well kept

and ready for the influx of people.  They had only one runway

open, as they were doing some good construction on all of

the others.  The new tower looks pretty good too.  It was

hard not to get pumped up for the show, seeing the place

waiting for all of us to flock in.

You may be right about the attendance. There seems to be a lot of emphasis

on early purchase of tickets.

That must be why they extended the discount period

Gas prices and weather.  Have you noticed the boomers walking across the

Midwest on almost a daily basis?  Holy flying cows!

Ya, massive discount too.  Is it the end of their fiscal year?

Well, I'll always be happy to go to the show, but personally

I feel like I got bent over and drilled when they dropped the

family membership thing and now I have to buy 2 'student'

memberships for the 2 kids...and get crap that I don't need.

Why couldn't they just leave it as it was.  Oh, and I don't

need to be reminded about my renewal beginning in what,

maybe February, if I don't expire until OSH.  Those are the

things that bug me.  But, I'll be going, and I'll be having

a ball.

Not too bad of a discount, $2 a day times 5 days = enough to get that first bottle of water for free!!

I didn't spend a whole lot of time reading it but if I read it correctly, EAA is not offering the discount.  It is Jeppesen that is paying for the discount.  If that is in fact true, I will have to go by and thank them.  They already get some of my money and as soon as I get the -10 in the air, they will be getting a bunch more.

Ya, but it's the massive $5 discount on the weekly ticket that gets you a brat.  HA

You talking about the "Big Taste Grill" truck from Johnsonville Brats?
