It's not directed at you, well.. I hope not.. but its required reading
in my mind. When it comes to the flying, be on your game: Altitude,
airspeed and being able to "spot land" where you should. Be practiced at
keeping your speed up until you HAVE to slow down.

Enough for now..

I'm thinking of making my first trip to Oshkosh this year.

How far in advance do I have to plan this? For example, how quickly
do the local hotels fill up? (Haven't made up my mind if I will camp
or do the hotel thing.)

Do I need a reservation to park the airplane? If so, how quickly do
they fill up?

Not being someone who needs to see everything, how many days should I
plan on to get the true experience?

I'm sure I'll have more questions to follow, so please bear with me
and thank you for your useful inputs.
