Oshkosh AirVenture 2009 - Jul 25 - Aug 2 - Pilot Bill
It's the Disneyland of Aviation: the annual weeklong Experimental Aviation Association AirVenture fly-in at Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
I came to a point in my RV project when I told myself I would not go to AirVenture or Sun 'N Fun again until I flew there in my own RV. And I stuck to it.

I worked as hard the two months before AirVenture as I had at any time during the entire project.
This AirVenture was different for me as it was ...

Earlier this summer back in Illinois I flew a challenging and fun lift job for SHURE microphones. This was a unique job for me. There were many many pics and some were glass panels and duct work to be flown up to this all glass building including the glass roof panels we were replacing parts of. An amazing building inside and out. Here's a video of some of the fun we had after the job participating in their microphone's indestructibility test.
