Oshkosh, b'gosh!

[Clayton Bigsby]

Bumping now for 2025!  Who’s in?

I am reprising my role.

You KNOW I'll be there. 

Actually, we are bringing The Deuce (and a Black Talon). 

She arrives Monday, leaves Monday.

Unless Congress changes it, the U-2 is done "operationally" in 121 days. 
 

Oshkosh will be the last time in public... unless things change. 
 

We shall see.

Yeah, I saw you guys got the primo Boeing plaza parking!  Not too far from us.  I’ll definitely be over.

Got a hotel for the week, not sure I’ll be there the whole time.

Those going to Oshkosh planeless stop off in Minneapolis, pick up my RV-8 and fly there in style.  I'll even throw in a full tank of 100LL with the sale.

Which one?

The CAF B-29 will be there again.  We're going to be on the Plaza Mon-Wed like last year, and flying in the evening show on Wednesday with Doc again.

Even though I'm the Squadron scheduler, right now I'm not on the board to fly the show. Trying to spread the love since I was in last year.

Hacker, are you at least coning to the event?
