Our crew (Keith Harlock, Greg Barnhard, Erica Miller and Bob Miller) lifted off from Akron, NY at 9:15am on Thursday, July 28. We flew direct to Muskegon, MI, then across Lake Michigan at its mid-point direct to Wittman Field in Oshkosh. Total flight time: 3 hours and 10 minutes. We returned the following Sunday morning. Our hospitality host for this four day adventure was EAA Chapter 46 from Buffalo, NY. The photos below are random shots taken throughout the trip. |

There
is nowhere else on the globe where so many aviators come together at
the same time and at the same place as Oshkosh AirVenture. It is a place where lasting memories are formed, new friends are made, and dreams of the future are inspired! |
