Our trip had us headed northeast to the venue EAA Airventure in Oshkosh,WI created by a man named Paul Poberezny. It was time to make a personal appearance at AirVenture to offer the possibility of getting a set of plans for Corey's concept plane the Voisin 3/5.
Paul Poberezny founder of the Experimental Aircraft Association stopped by the Replica Fighter Association's Headquarters to address a forum the year Corey took his plane to introduce the
World War l French Bomber design.
A definite highlight of that trip so many years ago was being able to discuss the history of Aviation
spanning Continents with Mr. Poberezny.
We had made our stop to obtain the admission bracelets for the week and once again got on the road to find our accommodations.
Driving Wisconsin Highway 41 in front of AirVenture I was continually finding interesting photo subjects.
This Billboard was an attention getter and a beacon for a record breaking crowd at this year's gathering of Aviation enthusiasts.

| Our destination for July 22-July 28,2018 |
The fastest way for some AirVenture attendees to arrive was to set a Notam for Oshkosh's Wittman Airport. You can see the runways in the map above are adjacent to the EAA grounds.
As I look at the calendar I see it was one month ago today that I got to see some new territory.
Time to end my little post for the first day of our excursion. If you got to go I hope you too can remember the sights and sounds of all the planes overhead and on display. The adrenaline rush that came with hearing engines rev to put the props or jets skyward.
Until next time...Have a great day!
