Airventure 2021

[GaAirman]

I'm planning on flying my Fox to Airventure for the first time this year and camping. Is there a collective Kitfox parking area by the Ultra-light strip or does everyone just park where-ever? I've been looking elsewhere but can't find any mention of it. Any tips for the newbie would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Youre always welcome at the Ultralight Field.

(That’s where all the cool kids hang out.)

For those of you lucky enough to be flying to Oshkosh, the NOTAM for Airventure has been released and can be read or downloaded at EAA.org/NOTAM. Sounds like many changes have been made, including effective dates (starts Thur. 7/22).

Is it pretty straightforward finding a spot to airplane camp by the Ultralight Field? I'm planning to arrive the Saturday before the show starts.

No powered taxiing in the area off the landing strip, but they have a couple tugs to help move you to a parking spot, where under-wing camping is allowed.

Thanks for the info! Hopefully see you there!

FYI, on 6/23 from 7-8:30 PM CDT, EAA will have a webinar "Tips For Flying Into Airventure 2021". From what I see the main item will be the new transitions on the Ripon arrival. I assume this is to avoid a repeat of the 2019 free-for-all. Link can be found under "News and Media" on EAA website.

Hoping to fly in as well...

You can prepay but you can not select your site until you arrive.

This sounds great. I have not flown in as I am always looking for parts and pieces for projects of L-birds that I am involved with. Perhaps when my Fox is finished I'll take that flight. I believe we will all be surprised by the turn out (large) this year, folks want to move on with their lives and be involved with their hobbies and addictions. My love of planes and building and restoring is an addiction for sure. I am looking forward to seeing and talking with many of you in July.
