And I thought it was hot here! It was hovering around 108 all week!

We started packing and weighing camping gear last night. This will be my third Oshkosh, but the first since '99. It
will be the wife's very first time so you guys try to behave, okay? I might want her to return sometime. :' )

We found out the couple with the Skyhawk that was going to fly up with us as a flight of two had to back out due to
unforeseen circumstances. We will forge ahead. I'm headed to the airport to wash the airplane and start loading.
We'll launch early Sunday morning and plan on arriving late Sunday afternoon. (676 nm).

Anyone know the condition of the grass in the North 40? Wet field, soft, tall?

Like Mike we will be very short on useful load in our 140 as hot as it is, so we may have buy beer when we get there
or do without.

That would be me! Looking forward to seeing all you folks. We were there 3 years ago, but haven't made
it since. We got the plane packed this afternoon in our 118 degree heat, and I'm not sure we have room
for much Arizona beer, but we'll try. We're launching for Iowa City at o'dark thirty tomorrow morning,
OSH on Sunday.
