Default Heading to Oshkosh

I need some advice from those of you who have had the thrill of attending
Oshkosh. This year for the first time, I will be going. Unfortunately, in
a car :-(. However, what I'm looking for is given that I will only be
able to attend 1 day maybe 2 at the outside, what should I focus on? In
other words, what would be the biggest bang for my buck? BTW, I read on
the EAA web link today that the U-2 will be there this year. Obviously
that is a must see.


My advise is to wait to go on a year that you can spend at least 5 days.
1 day is a waste of time, and 2 days is almost as bad.

If you insist on going, it would be helpful to know what your interests
are. Everything aviation is there. Without knowing, there is no way to
advise you.

Jim, going to Oshkosh for one or two days is like going to the beach - you
can't see "everything" but you can enjoy what you do see :-). As I mentioned
in my reply to Jay, being retired Air Force, I'll probably be looking at the
military acft. We were up there a couple of years ago (not during the flyin)
and went through the EAA museum so I don't think I will be spending time in
there.

Thanks.

Harry
