What Oshkosh should be about during the week is see and be seen, show and
tell
and the exchange of information.

 Well, I wish I could have been there with all the other rotaries.  Sigurd
Gandswind with his 13B powered Glastar tried to get there for a one day
visit, but the WX forced him to turn back.  The sun has not shown here for
over a week and 1/2 - lots of rain, humidity - no fun days to fly.

   I agree, I find I can not stand loud incessant noise (unless its my
engine running of course).  I tell myself I should go at least once, but
find it hard to get excited about the format.  Not for the little guy
anymore.  Once RV list guy said you could hardly find the homebuilds for all
the GA and other stuff.

  Well, glad to have you all back, it was getting lonesome {:>)

Funny you should mention that, Ed. My entire goal was to make it there. Once there
it was sort of ho-hum, what am I doing here?

Most frequent question I was asked: "How is that rotary working out for you?"

I guess Tracy gets some perverse joy out of dodging thunderstorms :)
For me it got to be a bit old, especially with a wide solid line of them towering
above 20,000'.

I haven't made it to OSH since '99 and don't know when I will go again.  I have found that what I really enjoy are the smaller events, especially Tracy's.  Also enjoyed having a few guys over a couple of weeks ago just to exchange ideas.
