Two years ago was my first trip to OSH, and this year I'm going again.
Last time, when it came time to take-off, the guy on the radio told me to
taxi onto the runway, but the guy with the flag was still holding it up in
the "STOP" position. So I stayed stopped, and the guy on the radio yelled
at me to move it, dammit.
Should I have ignored the flag?
IMHO, you should pay attention to the guy with the flag. He may have been
in a better position than the controller, to see something that should make
you stay put.
I would break radio silence to quickly point it out.
