A question for those Zenith drivers that have flown in. Where do the 701's congregate? 1988 was the last year that I made it to Oshkosh. Only got to stay one day since the wife (thankfully has now been "ex" for quite some time) wasn't happy. Myself and another 701 driver from the Wichita area intend to be going that way this year. Have heard varying opinions as to where they ought to go. One even said the 701's should go to the ultralight area (and performance wise can put most ultralights to shame on

short field, leaving or arriving) and others say homebuilt area. We intend to camp under the wings at this point, subject to a better situation. It's been long enough since I've been there and I've had little to no experience flying into this sort of congestion and would appreciate any suggestions.We've got a copy of the notam and new charts. Flight planning has begun.  Is there a gathering of Zeniths? Yehaaaa!

Get the Oshkosh Notam!!! And for camping under the wing they will put you in

"Homebuilt Camping" The Notam will fill you in on the sign you need for the

ground crews.  My 601 will be in "Homebuilt Parking" (you can't camp there)

Dave,

  

 I camped under the wing at Oshkosh in 2002 and 2004 for 6 days each time. I  was in the 

 vintage acft area and was right by the ultralight field both times. The one  thing nice about

 being there was that the demo 701 flew there all the time over our camping  spot. 

 The only 701 there though was the demo, all others were in the homebuilt  parking or the homebuilt camping area. They were not really grouped together in  the camping area but scattered about. They are grouped together by make in the  homebuilt parking.

 I hope you get to stay longer this time, it is lots of fun staying for the  week especially

 with a friend who is interested. I know how the wife gets at airshows for a  few hours

 and would not last more than a day at Oshkosh. Have a great time!
