Forrest,
Not all the guys are staging out of OSH. I'm not up on who is staying where. Because of a number of meetings and such, I am having to stay at OSH part of the time. I know that a number of the RPA guys (6 that I knows of) are staying in OSH because they're sharing an RV or house near by. I believe Herb mentioned that some 25 airplanes have signed up. That a goodly number particularly IF we can get all of them airborne for the show.
It is OK to stay over at MTW and commute each day to OSH for the briefing and show. A number of guys will (I do not know how many) will stay at MTW. Doing a lot of large formation work out of MTW may be a little difficult due to resurfacing (I've been told) of the main runway. They will be down to a one runway operation.
The plan right now for Monday show where all the warbirds make a simultaneous arrival into OSH and simply land - is for RPA to stage out of MTW. Fly the show arrival and land at OSH. We will than fly back to MTW after the show ends (or MAYBE get airboss to let us out early) and watch Jurgis Kairys do his demonstration. Than its Roger's Memorial dinner that evening there. I WILL NOT MISS THAT.
I erg all those who knew or flew with Roger to attended his memorial benefit dinner. It is for a educational fund in Roger's memory and very worthy of our support. Let Ashley know you're coming at ( pilotashley(at)gmail.com (pilotashley(at)gmail.com) ). It's $100/ person at a first class place with a guest speaker who you will instantly recognize. He is amazing.
The next day Tuesday we (me included) will fly to OSH for the briefing and fly the show. That evening (1930) we are invited (need a head count soon) to Baslers for a party. Those that need to get back to hotels in MTW need to leave before OSH closes for the evening (2000?).
Me? I'm staying at OSH that night for :
1. I want to get drunk.
2. I have a personal meeting the next morning early.
Since there no show to fly the next day Wednesday (I've been told) I may take in the exhibits or fly over to MTW, but I need to be back in OSH that evening.
So I can't tell you where everyone is staying. Just that not everyone wants to stay at MTW.
Leading pilots is not unlike trying heard cats but more like trying to load wild rabbits on a flat bed truck.
Pappy

Troops,
This is the plan for the big Monday WB show arrival. This is the sortie and formation plan. All this can change.
We will depart MTW so as to arrive at the holding point south of the 045 degree radial of OSH about 8 nm out. I want to arrive there about :10 before we are expected over show center. This will dictate our takeoff, taxi, engine start and briefing times. I will try to get an expected time in the next few days.
We are expected by airboss to fly over head show center at a TOT, than tag on to the end of the SNJ/T-6 group who will be arriving from the south directly into a 360 over head. We are expected to latch on to their last flight and do like wise.
The plan formation is simple and allows maximum maneuverability of flights.
It will be called the "Bomber Spread". It is to simulate a WW2 bomber formation as we over head the show center. "We shall blacken the skies with our presents".
Flights will be in 3's and arranged in a "V".
Because of the runway width at MTW we will take off in elements of 2 than 1.
On route we will fly in "V in trail" for maneuverability.
On the run-in to show center the formation will go to "Bomber Spread"
The second flight will move out to the lead flight's (L or R) while the third flight moves to the opposite side.
They will take up the normal bearing line but will double the space between. The third flight will dress off the second flight.
The forth flight will stay in trail with lead but will move up to dress off the second and third flights.
Following flights will do the same in order.
Once pass the show center, at the call for flights into trail, we will commence a turn so the flights can use turn radius to fall into trail position.
After locking on to 'tail end Charlie' of the T-6/SNJ guys, we'll go to echelons for the pitch and landings. Right now that is planned for runway 36. There are back up plans to use the 9/27 runway.
Now lets see if this all works!

Thanks for the info. Sorry for asking, I should have known there was a well thought out plan. See you in MTW.

PILOTS!
OSH is coming, I know many of you are going there, but some of you have not registered for the event. There is no registration fee, it is only for planning purposes.
Thanks for listening
