EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2003
http://www.airventure.org/
It's supposed to be some huge air show held in the little town of Oshkosh? Anyone ever been?
It runs through sometime late in July through August 4th, a long weekend. I'm actually up in Oshkosh visiting my grandma the last day of the show, but I don't think we'll go. I got a hotel room in Fond du Lac the previous night, and am spending one night with her. Just curious how the crowds might be, mostly, with driving and all.

Yes the "little" town of Oshkosh! It is a huge show for the experimental aircraft people.
I've flown in/out of Oshkosh in a friend's small flying club plane a few times near to when the show occurs. It is amazing all the vintage and cutting edge aircraft that were flying around then, I can only imagine what it is like when the show is on, insanity.
I would definitely go if you can.
