Absolutely fantastic. Your experience is what Oshkosh is all about, and why it's so special.

Thanks for sharing your photos and adventure with us.

Thanks Dan, I always enjoy seeing some variety...........

Edit: Sorry, that should have read Dan and Don!

Don, especially enjoyed the Stearman lineup, looked like it could have been from a factory.

Don,

Love the photos and absolutely loved your "good & bad" section. You bring up a lot of valid points and I would encourage you to pass your suggestions on to the powers-that-be at EAA.

I have to admit that the food has gone from bad to worse. Two years ago my family and I stopped and ate at one of the larger cafe's and were shocked when we were all served raw hamburgers which looked as though they had spent about 15 seconds on the grill. Can you say, "E. Coli?!!!" We usually only go down for a day trip...I can't imagine eating that stuff day in and day out for an entire week!

I also loved having to pay $3.00 for a tiny bottle of generic bottled water at the EAA Air Museum cafe.

John
