Oshkosh Airventure 2009!
I leave Saturday on the annual trek to the aviator’s closest thing to heaven on earth. This year’s AirVenture at Oshkosh, Wisconsin will be especially interesting with mission aviation being a major theme. Missionary pilots from all over the world will descend on this biggest airshow and exhibition in the country for a full week. Every aircraft type flown in the mountains and jungles of the mission fields will be on display. A large tent full of exhibits by numerous mission aviation groups will be sponsored by the International Association of Mission Aviation (IAMA).
This will by my third year to be invited to the EAA Author’s Corner at Oshkosh with my book, The Aviator’s Devotional. However, this year, I was asked to coordinate the inclusion of specially invited mission aviation authors in the Author’s Corner. I will provide more information in tomorrow’s post about these authors and their books. If you are going to Oshkosh, please come by the Wearhouse next to Aeroshell Square and meet these authors. I hope to see you there.
If any of you planning to go don’t have a place to stay yet, the family my wife, Linda, and I stay with has an extra bedroom and bath that they rent for $85 a day. That’s a real bargain at Oshkosh during AirVenture. And it is only 5 miles from the action. Shoot me an email to: terry@bountypublishers.comif you have any questions about AirVenture, Author’s Corner, or the accommodations. Hope to see you there.
