Oshkosh Bound Posters, Approach Procedures, and Such

I'm not sure as many people will be flying this year, but in 2003 I got
there late and the airport was closed for the air show. We were tired
and camped at Fond du Loc for the night. Sure enough, after the air
show they filled up completely. The next day we packed up and headed
for OSH only to have to come right back to Fond du Loc, for good this
time.

What day did you try to get in to OSH?

I believe it was Tuesday. I seem to remember that either the paper you
get on the field or the EAA magazine had an article and a picture of the
last guy to get in and camp. Last year we went on the Sunday before the
official opening, which worked out well. Hoping to do the same this
year. Today is my pack it up and weigh it day!
