I also will be leave Kansas City on Sat the weekend before they open, and stay for 4-5 days. However I plan to stop at Brodhead WI for the pete flyin. You can camp on the field for free eat dinner and breakfast with the eaa chapter and then make a short hop to OSH in on sun. If you have never been to Brodhead you will be amazed at the aircraft there and it is a Kitfox kind of airfield/ grass.

Lynn, Jim Clement has a fly in at Baraboo WI usually that weekend for Whittman Tailwinds on the way to Oshkosh. You might be interested in that. I stopped there last year on the way home from Door County. It was very interesting. Clement is the Tailwind guru since Steve Whittman died. Jim has built 13 or 14 of the Tailwinds with his own modifications and is a master craftsman.

Kirk C Your right. Brodhead is a neat grass strip. I was in there on skis in a Supercub 2 years ago with Wild Bill "Wilbur" Thomas. You probably never heard of him. But he is well known around Rockford. We flew to Brodhead along the Sugar River at between 50 to 300' all the way. He had to go "around" one patch of woods. If you are a builder Clement in Baraboo usually has a builders program the Saturday before Oshkosh.

I agree, Kirk. In fact, I was checking out the merchandise at one of
the Brodhead tables, and there was a T-shirt with a Kitfox on it. It
was used as the official T-shirt of the 2006, I think, Brodhead fly-
in. I bought their last one. The depiction was of a real Kitfox,
complete with an N-number....maybe someone knows whose plane it is.
If I can find it...it's either in the wash, or scheduled for it.

If it was a white fox then it is based on the field in Brodhead the owned
is the guy who laid out the shirts that year and is a member of the local
eaa chapter. I have 1 of those shirts as well. Here is the link to some
info about the show
http://www.pietenpols.org/id5.html
I will be staying the night on the field but unfortunately will be driving
up as 205AK is in need of some repairs. If you see a camp site with a red
grand prix stop by. I was also wondering if there were any Kitfox get
together's planned for OSH

I just found the shirt in question....I thought it had the year on
it, but it doesn't. It does say: Brodhead Airport (above the plane)
and then below: Chapter 431, Experimental Aircraft Association. The
Kitfox IS white, N99GC. and says "Stars and Stripes Forever" on the
side. But you knew that, Kirk, having the shirt.
A bunch of Kitfox's....6-8....usually camp in the Homebuilt Camping
area, scattered somewhere around rows 309-311, and maybe a few rows
in either direction. At least this has been the case for the last 2
years that I have flown up there. Another group of about 8 parks near
the flight line, near the Homebuilt Registration building, but can
not camp there. They get there about Thursday or Friday before the
show opens, I am told.
John and Debra McBean usually have a supper thing about Thurs or Fri
night at a pub near the airport.

Probably a silly question. Is there food available on the field in the days leading up to opening day of OshKosh?

I'm pretty sure that there is, but I've never arrived any earlier
than Sun before. I always take some snackin' stuff just in case,
though. Come to think of it, the Red Barn is open, as well as the
little store in the campgrounds. And if you fly in and stay in the
homebuilt camping area, there are courtesy vehicles that will pick
you up and take you very near the Red Barn, if not right to it. Last
year, I was met by one of these modified pickups (with bench seats on
either side of the bed), and it was driven by a guy from my home
chapter. When I asked if he could take me to the Red Barn, he said
"For a beer run? You bet....hop in!"

I just found the shirt in question....I thought it had the year on
it, but it doesn't. It does say: Brodhead Airport (above the
plane) and then below: Chapter 431, Experimental Aircraft
Association. The Kitfox IS white, N99GC. and says "Stars and
Stripes Forever" on the side. But you knew that, Kirk, having the
shirt.
A bunch of Kitfox's....6-8....usually camp in the Homebuilt Camping
area, scattered somewhere around rows 309-311, and maybe a few rows
in either direction. At least this has been the case for the last 2
years that I have flown up there. Another group of about 8 parks
near the flight line, near the Homebuilt Registration building, but
can not camp there. They get there about Thursday or Friday before
the show opens, I am told.
John and Debra McBean usually have a supper thing about Thurs or
Fri night at a pub near the airport.

I'm pretty sure that there is, but I've never arrived any earlier than Sun before. I always take some snackin' stuff just in case, though. Come to think of it, the Red Barn is open, as well as the little store in the campgrounds. And if you fly in and stay in the homebuilt camping area, there are courtesy vehicles that will pick you up and take you very near the Red Barn, if not right to it. Last year, I was met by one of these modified pickups (with bench seats on either side of the bed), and it was driven by a guy from my home chapter. When I asked if he could take me to the Red Barn, he said "For a beer run? You bet....hop in!"
