Oshkosh 2018

Through the wonders of the internet, I can listen to the Fisk VFR approach while sitting at my desk.

Action, adventure, comedy, drama.  Can't beat it.

Scroll about half way down, click on one of the options for: KOSH Fisk VFR Approach.

Also using the free FlightRadar24 app on the phone to watch the lineup of airplanes coming in.

Seems to have calmed down over the past hour.  There was a big crush of airplanes this morning, but it's thinned out.

The Air Boss during the air show is great listening, particularly during one of the larger air shows on Friday and Saturday.  Neat insight into what goes on behind the scenes to make that show happen.

The air show video is streamed live here.

I downloaded the FlightRadar24 app to my phone.  You can zoom in on Oshkosh to see traffic.

The below is from about 8:00 Central time this morning.  Large mess of folks holding over Green Lake and Rush Lake to the SW of Oshkosh (in addition to everyone over Oshkosh itself).
