Troops.
Below is the RPA schedule for OSH this year. It will be quite a year. So far over 120 members have signed up to be there with well over 60 aircraft. That is from just our associations. The T-6 guys are planning on 70. There is a lot going on. $75.00 is the event fee, which get you a lot of bennies. Sorry no free gas but EAA pays for show fuel anyway.
