Freakish Oshkosh Weather Continues!

Yes, Airventure fans, it's been fair, mild, low humidity, refreshing, beautiful weather...all descriptors none of us is used to using in the same sentence with the words Oshkosh and summer.

It's been a delight not to drop with exhaustion at the end of a long day slogging around the miles of paths and thousands of exhibits, planes and aviation sundry.

Here's some more cool stuff from my travels across the great cement/grass/asphalt immensity known simply as "Oshkosh."

"If it flies, it's cool" pretty much nails the ethos of James Lawrence. Milestones along the taxiway include boyhood obsessions with airplane models and science fiction; first flight lesson at 15 (Piper Cub); cadet at the U.S. Air Force Academy, (class of '67); sailplane lessons in the California desert when he could afford it; built and flew his first hang glider (1973); magazine and book author and actor (TJ on tv's SWAT); former Editor (Ultralight Aircraft, Outdoor Photographer, Plane & Pilot); freelance writer/photographer since 1992; current LSA Editor-at-Large. Rents a local Piper Cub in Great Barrington; still loves the sky, from ground and air.
