Default Packing for OSH

We pre-packed Atlas for OSH last night, and he is stuffed to the
gills. Was feeling pretty smug about having everything ready to go
for our flight tomorrow morning (after the pool party tonight), until
I walked out to our Subaru wagon this morning.

The entire back of the car is full of our clothing bags! I thought we
had packed everything, and now I've got to find another 15 cubic feet
of space inside, somewhere.

I *thought* that packing seemed easier than normal this year!

Safety tip of the day :-)

I can remember standing on the field at Oshkosh watching a thousand
airplanes landing, taxiing, and parking all over the place packed with
everything you can think of including tents, grills, sausage links,
clothing, and even cats and dogs and thinking to myself, "Self, this is
probably the biggest gaggle of airplanes pushing their weight and
balance envelopes that have ever gathered in one place at one time.
Then I mentally went through my own personal packing list that I had
jammed in the two gun bays of my airplane.........spare clothing for the
safety meeting later on..........and Theodosius T. Bear (large stuffed
bear cleverly used by mensa level pilot to attract extremely good
looking stewardess type females) :-)
Yup. I had everything I needed for the show!!!
