Subject: [LML] So Who's Going to OSH This Year?

To: <lml>
Last year I flew my LNC2 into Fond Du Lac because I didn't know I was going until two days into the show and I was scared to death to try to get into OSH (I had not flown in since the mid-70s).  This year I want to be on Lancair row at OSH.  My schedule is such that I can arrive on any day prior to or during the show.  I have a hotel room booked in Fond Du Lac from July 26 thru August 4 and a rental car reserved.
 
Question 1 - who else is going? (I know Scott K. and Larry H. are racing from Kitty Hawk.)
 
Question 2 - when are you arriving?
 
Question 3 (for OSH veterans) - what is the best day (and time) to arrive (i.e. when is the craziness at a minimum)?
 
I realize I could fly in several days in advance, but I don't want to be sitting around picking my nose for several days waiting for the action ( I've already spent two full days in the museum!).  So I guess I'm looking for a compromise between wasted time and aerial craziness.
 
So what is the advice of the accomplished Oshkoshians?
