Oshkosh…Again!

Written By John Slemp

An F-22 Raptor screams by during an afternoon airshow in 2008.

Please join us if you are attending AirVenture this year for two presentations. On Tuesday, 22 July at 1130, I’ll be participating in the Aviation Week panel discussion about their annual photo contest. It will be at Forum 10 just north of the tower. The following day at 0830, I’ll be speaking in the Skyscape Theater about my book Bomber Boys: WWII Flight Jacket Art. The theater is located in the EAA main headquarters/museum building, just inside the front door. Arrive early as it only seats about 100 people. One lucky person will walk away with a free copy of the book!
