Default Rec.Aviation OSH report

It wasn't a very good week as far as accidents go. The Cherokee rumor
was actually an Europa. Two people died in that crash. This morning a
TBM taxied into an RV6 killing the passenger.

Then there's the F-86 in North Carolina that was on it's way to OSH.

On the not-in-motion type of accident, there was a storm in Appleton
this morning that damaged a Maule and a Bonanza.

Wunderground.com shows the wind this morning peaked at 40 gusting to 58 MPH

I just got off the phone with Jay Honeck. The group that had left KIOW this
morning arrived at OSH after several holds and an accident on 9/27. Rumors
are that a Cherokee pilot perished in an air to ground crash. No other
details.

For those that are going to the Rec.Aviation.*.* party Wednesday night, Jay
and Mary's parking/camping spot is # 558 in the North 40 on the NORTH side
of 9/27 on the departure end of 27 fairly close to Friar Tucks.

Good luck to all that are inbound to OSH and fly safe.

See you Wednesday
