Oshkosh 2007 Redux

Thirty miles out we all switched our transponders to "Stand By".
Fifteen miles from Ripon we bade each other good luck, turned on our
landing lights, switched to FISK approach, and fell into trail.
Flying up the tracks we (of course!) got stuck behind a Cessna driver
who insisted on flying 90 mph rather than 90 knots. Dropping flaps,
I maintained my position and prayed that everyone behind was spaced
out properly.


Were you able to receive the 'new' ATIS? Never seemed to work...
