@DWTSquawk7600 Tell her I am fine. I would tell her myself but damn, we cannot get her over here. Tell her this is where all the cool kids hang out.

She's good people. Helped me out big time for years doing #Oshbash. I had the Bacon Jerky shipped to her, she drove it (64 bags a year) to KOSH, and drove me to the store to buy drinks and ice each year. They don't make 'em like her anymore. You can pass that along.

Flying along the Western Shore of Lake Winnebago in the EAA Ford Trimotor at AirVenture 2003. #Photography #PhotographyOnMastodon #Aircraft #Aviation #Oshkosh #AirVenture #Wisconsin #FordTrimotor

View from inside a vintage aircraft, showing part of the engine and propeller. The metallic structure of the engine and the motion blur of the spinning propeller blade is visible. Below, the houses, roads, and green spaces of the City of Oshkosh stretch out, with Lake Winnebago in the distance. The photo is taken through a window, and part of the green window frame is visible on the right side.

Is anyone else planning on going to the #EAA #AirVenture in Oshkosh in July? I got my hotel reservation and tickets booked for Thursday and Friday. It's going to be my first time going during the week.

Was just digging thru my drives and found a few #aviation #photos all you #avgeeks might like. Descriptions in the ALT text.

Before we had "Katy" the Piper Cherokee 235, we were half owners of "Peggy" a older Cessna 172 with a Franklin engine. Shown on the ramp in Thermal, CA for an AOPA convention.

Self-portrait at an EAA AirVenture show. I cannot resist a shiny airplane.

A Globe Swift in the Vintage section of an EAA AirVenture show. Paint was gorgeous.

It takes a lot of elbow grease to keep this Lockheed Model 12 Electra Junior this shiny. (I might be wrong on the model, it was a while ago).

Grumman G-44 Widgeon at AirVenture Oshkosh in 2003. #Photography #PhotographyOnMastodon #Grumman #Widgeon #EAA #AirVenture

A Grumman Widgeon amphibian painted red and white is parked on a grassy area at AirVenture Oshkosh in 2003. The aircraft has twin engines mounted on the wings above the fuselage. Several people are seen around the plane, with one person sitting on a chair and another standing near the plane. Other aircraft and tents are visible in the background, along with trees and a clear blue sky.

Pretty sure this hour's random desktop background image on my #MacbookPro is a very cool Jim Koepnick shot of Ardy and Ed's Drive-in, located under the final approach to RWY 27 at KOSH.

#Avgeeks that know about this place make it a mandatory stop during #AirVenture.

If you ever find yourself at the show in late July each summer, go here, sit on the patio, order a Drive-in Double, fries and a Black Cow and watch as all sorts of yummy flying machines part your hair on final.
