Hey all,



I'm sure I could research this out, but thought I would ask the group first and see what I can glean from your experience. I have given some thought to trailering into Oshkosh with my Kolb MKII with the hope that I could perhaps fly around the patch like they do there. 



Just wondering how much red tape you have to go through to actually do that. Any input is appreciated.



Thanks,



Duane

Duane/Gang:



Not too much red tape.



When you get to the Oshkosh UL area, go to the red barn, UL Hq.



Register your aircraft.



Sit in on the next fixed wing briefing at UL flight ops.



You are good to go.



Based on slow times in the UL area at Oshkosh the last couple years that I 

did not attend, I feel they will welcome your presence.

Do you have to show your license or any of that? I should have it, but it will be close.

 No plans until after I finish up my flight out West.

  

 Have moved my departure up to Sunday.  That will give me 4.5 days  instead of my normal 2.5 days to arrive by noon Thursday.  The 2.5 day  flight required two 8 hour and one 4 hour day, without any time for  weather.  Extending my time by two days will allow me to fly shorter days,  take it easy if I get tired, or if I have to wait out winds and  weather.

  

 Anxious to get to Monument Valley and see my old friends and make some  new ones.

  

 Wish everyone could make this flyin.  It is the best.

As far as I know, EAA doesn't check for licenses. A couple of years ago, there were two exact Firestars sitting side by side. One had numbers and the other a fat ultralight w/o numbers. The EAA didn't do anything that I was aware of. The UL pilot flew it from the St Louis area without a GPS using pilotage and sectionals. They do look over your plane and if they see something wrong with it (like a missing bolt), they will ground it. They will also ground the pilot if you cross the runway w/o permission (must go the long way around along the sides). Attend the morning briefing and you should be good to go. They want you to call the red barn before flying in. Should you have a rough landing or damage anything upon landing, the FAA will be called on the spot. Be aware and keep your eyes open and stay at 300' in and out. The EAA has a good video on their website showing the pattern/route in and out of the convention for LSA's/UL's.

Check it out, Oskosh 2010 UL/Lightplane NOTAM:



http://www.airventure.org/flying/ul.html



john hauck

mkIII - 3,008.5 hours

912ULS - 440.0 hours

US - 385.0 hours

FS - 1,135.0 hours

Total:  4,825.5



The above is time in my Kolbs.  Took 26 years to get that time in my Kolbs. 

That averages to 185.6 hours per year overall.  However, there were 

approximately 7 years of down time due to building, rebuilding, and 

overhauling, all three aircraft.  For the years my airplanes were actually 

flying, I averaged 254.0 hours per year.  Since my last flight to Alaska, 

2004, I have flown very little, other than my annual flight West which takes 

about 75.0 flight hours.  Does not include hours in other Kolbs, GA, and 

military aircraft.

It is a good time flying in and camping under the wing of my Kolb at Airventure. I hope to fly in and camp again this year. In recent years there have been so few planes flying it was down right sad.

  

 One special note about flying in. They require that you call the Red Barn to get permission to fly in. Don't assume that any information given during the call will be accurate or that they will tell anyone that you are inbound. If there aren't any planes flying in the pattern do a fly by on the south west side of the strip to verify landing direction. Maybe they have fixed this procedure but?

Fyi  

   

The weather in Utah has been quite iffy this spring.    More days of wind and rain than I would like, the jet stream has been overhead and when it has been clear the wind seems to blow,  the flying has still been lumpy.   Had my first smooth flight this spring last Saturday.  Usually around this time of year we get the change over from this crud to good flying weather,  Last night the weather guessers said that southern Ut will be clear and dry may 15 – 17th.    The same time frame in northern Ut is cloudy.   I will try and let you know what the weather guessers have to say as it gets closer to the departure dates.      

   

Looking forward to seeing as many as can make it this year.
