I've been to the airshows in OshKosh, even had flight line passes one year (What a difference that makes to enjoying an airshow). Never met any famous pilots, but meeting WWII vets who flew with the 8th was thrilling enough.

Thanks for your thoughts.

The great thing about the airshows now in Oshkosh is that you get the flight-line pass when you purchase your ticket, so you get a wonderful up-close look at these beautiful planes.

Another wonderful sight this year was to see a dozen mustangs running up their engines before they took to the skies.

Amazing...
