Troops,
RPA Sunday arrival is set for 1230 L (CST). That is when ATC will be expecting us at OSH.
Since some NATA guys will be hooking on to us to go in at the same time, I'd like to set the sortie here.
Rendezvous point will be over Nett Construction (7W19) a grass strip, located 14 nm SE of OSH and 8 nm NE of FDL. Roughly the SE corner of the lake. This is also assuming a runway 36 L landing. We may have to change rendezvous point if the runways change to 9 or 18. However this point should work for 36 and 27 operations.
1. RPA flights will depart overhead MTW at 1150 L (start engines at 1135 L)
2. Arrive at the rendezvous point (7W19) at 1210 L.
3. Loiter at 2,500' msl until join up.
4. At 1220 L depart rendezvous point for OSH.
5. At 1230 L arrive OSH.
(times based on 120 kts)
A. Flights will be in trail. One (1) nm between flights. Non formation pilots will be in "stinger" positions at 1/2 mile.
B. RPA flights from MTW will lead in.
C. NATA flights will follow.
D. Any other RPA flights joining up from other departure points will follow NATA Texans.
TAC #1 122.72
TAC #2 123.15
TAC #3 123.17
Call sign "RPA Lead" "Texan Lead". Other flights joining up will use their call sign.
At switch over the OSH ATCTC frequency 122.6 "RPA Lead" will change call sign to "EAA Warbird Lead" as per letter of agreement.
Last aircraft in the last flight will use the call sign "EAA Warbird Tail" This particularly important if the aircraft is a stinger. If the last craft is part of a flight of 4, his lead will make the calls UNTIL the flight breaks for the landing, than #4 will make the calls at the appreciate time. (see attachment)
All Leads please read briefing attached.
At this point I plan on leading the RPA group in. I'd like to have a backup for me. Any takers?
All Leads may contact me at 386-467-3313 (home) or 386-559-1942 (cell).
Here is hoping the engines run and the weather gods are smiling.
