Early Oshkosh Arrivals - Saturday Part 1 - EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2023

Various aircraft arrive to land on Saturday during the opening weekend of the 2023 EAA AirVenture airshow in Oshkosh, WI.Watch for the Mass Mooney Arrival!
Be sure to also watch Part 2 of Saturday arrivals! • Early Oshkosh Arrivals...
The Experimental Aircraft Association's AirVenture is a massive fly-in, convention and airshow held at Wittman Regional Airport each July. The event sees more than 10,000 aircraft of all types - general aviation, home-built, vintage, warbird, ultralights, and modern military - and hundreds of thousands of spectators over the course of a week.
During the event, the airport claims the title of the world's busiest airport with famously busy arrivals and departures. It is standard procedure to have multiple aircraft taking off or landing on the same runway at the same time! Our arrival and departure videos try to capture a fraction of the daily action, including radio communications between air traffic controllers and pilots.

“Sir, there’s some Mooneys on short final” “How many?” “All of them!” 😅

[@edufidelis2064]

Hahahahahaha

That's very funny... 63rd LIKE; I was sorta expecting to see a huge wedding. Wrong Moon...

[@fivestringslinger]

Apparently every Mooney ever decided to head to Osh 23. Awesome.

You aren't lying 😂 holy shit

[@scottsmith7051]

Oshkosh Tower Mooney flight of one million...

[@SOLAscriptura-]

I’ve been in the tower during OSH ops and it’s incredible watching them orchestrate this madness. I’ve only flown in once, and it’s a huge relief to get on the ground.

[@lesdonaldson520]

So many Mooneys this is insane What an amazing place

[@jetdoctn]

Loved seeing a couple of Piper Comanches coming in with the Mooney group. Seeing as how if you know the story of how the Comanche came to be it's fitting to fly in with the Mooney's.

Seeing these mass landings is cool!

I've flown into a few big airshows, and it is a huge relief to get on the ground. Then you can watch everyone else land.

[@mrashid3643]

OH WOW! That mass landing is the most astonishing thing I have ever seen.

[@p.c.9714]

Totally agree. Even the camera can't cope with all aircraft!

[@mrashid3643]

@@p.c.9714 I kid you not that I initially thought it was some sort of time lapse loop of planes on final.

As a former Mooney employee of 5 years, it did my heart good to watch that Mooney flight come in.

The dual landings on the spots for the next dual on finals is so cool, love Oshkosh...have fun guys.

Amazing job coordinating all those aircraft landing one after another or as a group !! Got to go to this show one day !!

[@mamo-gaming]

the mass of planes in the final... simply insane!

[@04AirForceRam]

I was at my friends hanger today helping him swap batteries on his TBM avenger, and the conversation of the day was of the swarm of Mooneys that came in.

[@GregWilliams113]

Very cool. I was the controller from about the 9:00 minute on. Great job on this video.

Great landing in this video, 2 planes stood out for me #1 the purdy DC3 and the pretty little green and white tail dragger. Even the the guy in the tower made mention of it. Safe travels. Ken.

Never seen so many Mooneys at one time 😎

Love your vids, been watching for years but I have a selfish request. Show a liitle extra on any Cessna 310's you see 😊. Up until my Dad turned 80 and we had to sell our 1969 Cessna 310P I had flow into Oshkosh with him over 10 times (Dad around 15).

Awesome video ! What happened with Maule in 21:13 tow by a J.Deere ? Best regards from Chile, South America.

It looks like there is some damage to the bottom area of the plane and possibly damage to one of the wings on the tail, I can’t remember the name of that wing though, but that is just what it looks like to me on video.

He had a flat tail wheel... That's me and my friend Nate (Homebuilt Parking crew) towing it all the way down to the S. 40 parking.

[@artgreen6915]

Formation pairs landing left while individual aircraft land on right in a parallel, high frequency approach? How DO they get FAA approval for this? Normally only highly instrumented aircraft flown by pairs of well beyond basic IFR pilots approaching highly instrumented runways flying very specific procedures get to do this....and that's without the formation pair element!

This must be someone that either had a bad experience flying formation, or is just sour grapes about life. I guess you don't believe there should be more then 1 car on the highway at a time. That's formation driving inches apart.

[@jonathonmcrae5671]

A lot of taildragger pilots that maybe....shouldn't be taildragger pilots...

[@GeneralChangFromDanang]

My guess is they don't typically operate off of 150ft wide runways. It makes a big difference in sight picture and flare height.
