Default Question for those who attended Oshkosh

What was the final Warbird attendance totals? Is there a fighter, bomber,
trainer break down, and what Warbirds won awards?

The awards are on EAA's site, but I don't know if the other info is.

JPN:
Thanks for the info!That must have been some L-4 to win Reserve Grand
Champion! Did you get a chance to see the CAF B-24A upclose? I have seen a
lot of pictures and followed the rebuild online but if you saw her upclose
what do you think?

Unfortunately, I did not see her up close since I don't go on the
grounds. If I did, I'd bring an old family friend who was a crew
chief for a B24--he's fond of pointing out if even one bolt is wrong!
The first time he did this (with Diamond Lil) I was shocked--you'd
think the guy would be happy to see a restored example.
