OSHKOSH! The Spirit Of Aviation
This is a long EAA video at a little over 17 minutes, but it's also a nearly perfect video that shouldn't be missed. If you've never been to Oshkosh, you need to see it, and if Oshkosh has been part of your life for years, you'll want to see it.
I was only 9 years old when the first Oshkosh took place in 1970, but I was there, as I have been over 30 times in all. It's like no place on earth. Not just because it's the biggest aviation event in the world, but because of the people. Special people.
People from all over the world coming together with a common ‘goodness' that honestly isn't all that common these days. It's the kind of goodness and integrity that I thought was the foundation of the USA, but it seems to be lost or forgotten from sea to shining sea.
But Oshkosh still has it. I hope it always will.
If you're looking for something special, something out of the ordinary... if you're looking for the best there is: welcome to Oshkosh.
