    Subject: OSH update - Thursday PM
    Busy day today with a steady arrival of vintage aircraft. No doubt that by tomorrow evening the best spots in vintage (near the theater in the woods) will probably be full. We stayed pretty much busy most of the day so I did not get a chance to "explore" the other areas to see how many homebuilts had arrived or newer storebought aircraft were in the north forty. May try to check it out early tomorrow morning before we get busy again. Weather here was great all day. This afternoon a group of showers and thunder cells moved from west to east but they were all south of the field here. Current forecast for tomorrow is for a 40% chance of thunderstorms and showers after 1300 local. Talked to several people today that actually knew what a Lightning was and I think I have one of them convinced they should check it out before deciding to build an RV-12. Another builder from Kentucky is actually building a 12 and I spend some time this evening convincing him to go with a Jabiru vice the Rotax that the 12 plans show. I am going to get him talking with Pete and Ben about using his 12 fuselage for them to design a firewall forward kit for the Jabiru on the RV-12. He was glad to talk to someone about the Jabiru that actually had quite a bit of time flying behind them. No more news other than to try to convince all of you to make the trip to OSH. Long range forecast is for great weather for the show. If early attendance is a good indicator, this should be a great year.

    I forgot to mention that a TFR has been issued for this afternoon and Friday around the greater Chicago area corresponding with a visit by the President to that region. If you need to transit the area on your way to Oshkosh tomorrow, please check it out and plan accordingly. Buz **************Dell Deals: Treat yourself to a sweet deal on popular laptops!
