I went to Oshkosh. Seeing the Dreamliner was good. Nice machine. Also saw the new 4 place aircraft from Tecnum and Remos. actually the Tecnum was further along. The Remos was just a mock up. Unfortunately 2 people lost their lives in a J-3 Cub when they crashed into Lake Winnebago. Also has an F-16 run off the end of the runway and messed that aircraft up. Another jet ran off the end of the same runway later in the day. No injuries in either accident. Only big announcement was that Tom Porberzny was totally retiring from the EAA so for the first time in the EAA's history their will not be a Poberzny directly running the organization. Did think we might have another Sun and Fun episode when one afternoon a cell came through kicking the wind to 40 mph. No aircraft were damaged but it tore the grounds up flipping tents, tables, papers and empty ice cream cones everywhere. Other then that it was another Oshkosh.
