Default Packing for OSH

Hence the reason to pack what you need, then take half of it out to
leave at home. Schedule your departure home for early morning or late
evening, when the heat and humidity are up, overloaded airplanes don't
perform well. I've sat at the departure end watching and listening to
aircraft straining to get airborne. Some creaking and groaning as they
lumber skyward. People forget that they accumulate more stuff while at
the show. Some are smart and have it shipped home, others just use
their feet to pack it in tighter. I remember one year a guy and his
buddy took off heading home to ND, only made it as far as Appleton.
One rented a car to haul all the stuff home they had accumulated. That
must have been a scary ten minutes in the air! Fly or Drive Safe! See
ya there!
