A specially designated area in the North 40, “Cessna Base Camp,” will
accommodate up to 500 airplanes at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2006 to honor
the 50th anniversary of the Cessna 172 and 182. The exclusive parking
area will allow owners/operators of the most produced airplane model in
history to park their aircraft, camp together, and be close to several
activities planned throughout the week July 24-30.

Now, these Cessnas have to make a reservation on a special website and
they have to arrive by Sunday evening... but this is why I'm concerned
about possibly being turned away for camping before normal....
My guess is that they are reserving 500 places for airplanes that would have
come, anyway. I still can't imagine that there will be any problem.
I'll place money on less planes being there, than last year. Gas prices
always seem to keep some away.
