EAA Experimental Aircraft -- Oshkosh / Airventure in 2008

[MotoCreations]

I will be there on tuesday, wednesday and thursday during airventure.

If you see a MotoCreations shirt or two while there -- definitely say "hi" and make introductions. 

And yes they are hiring at Scaled -- but have you ever LIVED in Mojave, CA?  (There is a reason quite a few people fly in/out of there everyday for commute purposes)

Insane event.  Seeing a few P-51 Mustangs is exciting -- seeing 20+ of them going down the runway and then flying in formation -- unreal.  Seeing the P-38 that was recovered from Iceland (remember that Nova episode?) flying above was surreal -- I figured I'd never see one fly in my lifetime.  Seeing the F-22 Raptor demonstration -- I want to go for a ride in one!  I'd hate to be the bad guy that this warrior goes against in battle.

As for rest of the Oshkosh event?  Wow.  Thousands of planes, hundreds of vendors and tens of thousands of passionate enthusiasts having fun.  I'm glad I went.  Even in two days I barely covered 70% of what there was to see.  Highly recommended for others in the future.

I would love to have seen all those mustangs in flight. Sounds like an exciting moment!

There is @1400 pictures and short movies.  I'm trying to process everything asap.  But headed to Monterey Historics (fun) / Pebble concours d'elegance (work) and then Bonneville Speedflats (friend is running a streamliner).  Figure @13K more pictures in those few days.  If I don't get the EAA pictures posted before heading out -- I will post upon return. (a few here and rest on my website)
