According to my calendar, we all have exactly 39 days until the start of this year's Oshkosh AirVenture. I certainly have high hopes for a good show this year and I hope to see a lot of Sonex support in the way of airplanes, builders, and enthusiasts throughout the week.

I was hoping to start a thread to see what everyone currently has planned for their travels. If you have a moment, please indicate if you are:

- Flying your Sonex to the show and parking in the HBP-Sonex area, or in the HBC area.

- Driving to the show.

- Can't make it this year but will be there in spirit.

I sure hope to see a lot of old friends, make new ones, and put faces to names I've talked to online. Now it's time to break out the polisher and start getting my Waiex ready!

I'll be driving to Airventure this year.

I plan on flying Onex 182 there next year.

I hope to be there for the sixth year in a row in the Orange Waiex, Mike.

As usual, I'll try to arrive for the open house and stay until at least mid-week. I'm looking forward to camping with you again... :D

It is a little iffy at the moment - we are planning to fly to the show, but we can't do it in the Sonex. It doesn't hold the kids. We have been slowly refurbing a very modest 1962 182 since February ... if it works out, we will be flying _it_ to Oshkosh. It is the opposite of exciting, but it can certainly haul kids.

If we were childless, Rose and I would absolutely be flying 618 "Flyin' Matilda" to the show.

I'll be pulling my trailer there.

Just ordered a 2nd Honda generator so my wife and kid can stay cool on the days they don't attend the show. :-)

Left my 5th wheel in FL but I may make it for a couple of days if I can connect with (7th Heaven?)to find a spot to put a tent.

I'll be flying the Waiex with my son. Probably first half of week and camping. We are close to flying off Mike Neidenthals phase 1 so he will probably be coming with me.
