Day 1 -
Steve Berardo, Evan McDougal, and me (Dick Ludders) all NHAHS members and "propeller heads" in the extreme lifted off from Manchester-Boston Regional Airport Thursday, July 22, 2010 headed to the EAA's Air Venture 2010 at Oshkosh, WI at 6:55 am. Fuel stops in the Finger Lakes region of NY and Owasso, MI and a little over 6 hours of flying, plus a little ground time to let one line of T-storms pass, have put us at the shore of Lake Michigan at Muskegon.
Here we will wait to see what the advancing warm front brings before venturing across that LARGE body of water and scooting in to Oshkosh. At the very least, our location this far west and the clearing forecast for Saturday will put us in to the heart of aviation's "big show" by Saturday. We will then set up camp and immerse ourselves in "aeronautica" for the coming week. Stay tuned!

If someone had told me a year ago that Dick Ludders would be "blogging", I'd have laughed at them! This is an awesome way to share your adventure with the rest of us! Have a great time guys (not that I think you need my encouragement)!!!!
