I won't be there, but just a suggestion. How about everyone bring FRS
radios and agree to monitor one frequency? That would make it pretty easy
to find everyone, at any time, even if the frequency was congested (probably
likely).

How will us RAP's and ilk find each other's location, since no one knows
where they will be until they land?


We are once again planning a "rec.aviation" party at our campsite in the
North 40. The inaugural event, held last year at OSH, was well-attended

and
everyone had a great time! Admission is a six-pack of good beer!

(See pix of this event at
http://alexisparkinn.com/rogue's_gallery_i_-_p.htm#OSHKOSH You've got to
scroll down past the OTHER Oshkosh party, a pool party which will be held
this year on July 25th... :-)

In order to find someone in the North 40, all you need is either their

name,
or their tail number (the tail number is more reliable). Go to the good
EAA folks at the camper check-in tent (at the entrance to the North 40),

and
give them the information. They will tell you the precise row number and
campsite of the person you are trying to find!

The Big Grill. Could you transport it to our campsite, or would we

have
to move the party to the grill? :-)

Montblack is (was?) planning on bringing grills, but he seems to be AWOL
from the groups for the last couple of months...so we may need other
options?

Is there a message board in the north 40? Will anyone have internet
connections while there for the week, and what will the addresses be?

Questions, questions. I'm starting into planning mode. I missed last

year,
due to surgery, and am really looking forward to it.

If anyone is interested, I will be in the Aviation Explorers camp, which

is
between the CAP camp, and the warbird RV and camping site.

I plan on roughing it gthis year, and taking my work van, with a

quick,
air conditioned, RV conversion, as soon as I get all of our group's gear

out
of it. I might be bringing a tow-behind, 100 burger grill for the

Explorer
Base to use, and I might be able to free it up for an evening, if anyone
(Jay) is interested.
