It is not too early to plan attendance at the largest annual aircraft show in the world at Oshkosh, Wisconsin sponsored by the Experimental Aircraft Association. Known worldwide simply as "Oshkosh", hundreds of thousands will attend this 55th annual event which attracts not only Experimental Homebuilt Aircraft, but Light Sport Aircraft, Warbirds, ultralight aircraft, restored Antique and Classic aircraft, helicopters, autogyros, military aircraft, airships, gliders and the newest production aircraft models.

If it flies, you have a good chance of seeing it at Oshkosh. Awards are given for various aircraft categories, seminars are held, workshops are offered, airshow performances, and noted aviation authorities will be on hand. Also, the 60th anniversary of the United States Air Force formation in 1947 will be celebrated.

EAA Airventure dates in 2007 are July 23 through 29, inclusive, at Wittman Regional Airport, OSH.
