I went by the EAA airshow in Oshkosh WI a bit ago. Unfortunately, no semi parking, as usual so I didn't get to stop and explore or take any pictures. I know LC from our dim history was there but alas, no meetup either.

I did, however, get treated to a low and loud flyover by two F4U Corsairs which were overnighting at a nearby airport when I finally did stop. While walking the dog in the morning, I heard the distinctive growl of two R-2800 radials winding up and taking off. I saw them as they cleared the treeline, climbing and turning north towards Oshkosh, so I assume they were heading there. Be still my fluttering heart!

Sometimes, I hate my job.
