FISKE Arrival at OSH Making Controllers Cheer!

I edited out a big chunk of the flight. I entered the conga line 10 miles south of Portage Municipal. Then got passed by an EZ when joining the pattern. All in all though, a great job to the controllers handling all that traffic. This place is amazing!

I’m an air traffic controller so I appreciate the departure controller’s sense of humor about OSH. I have two goals in life 1. Work Airventure from the tower 2. Build an airplane and fly it to the show

[@SpreadAviation]

Never stop working towards those goals!

Good goals @Morphmixologyreptiles I would like to suggest that you start building your plane of choice as soon as possible. That way you can repeat goal 2 over and over again. 😎

Just found your video, thanks for sharing. I like watching videos of pilots flying to Airventure (some of us locals call it EAA) and listening to some of the ATC's at Fisk, sometimes get some good ones. I'm not a pilot, but I get a copy of the notes or notices from EAA website. Just wondering are the planes from Ripon to Oshkosh at 1800 or 2300 feet? Looks like the train tracks a along side of Highway 44. If so, looks like it would be a fun ride on 44 to see the flightline. Gonna be at Airventure 2023? aka EAA.

[@SpreadAviation]

Hi thanks for the comment. There’s two altitudes. 1800 and 2300 and there’s two speeds 90 and 130 respectively. Slower airplanes are lower. Sitting at the side of the road while airplanes fly by would be fun. You could also get really close to the ATC facility where they’re directing us. I’ll be there, give a follow on Instagram for updates. I’m usually around the IAC building next to Boeing Plaza.

[@Hurst6969]

WOW!! Amazing air traffic controllers Obviously very experienced and what a process Curious what type of shifts they are working in the tower with that amount of traffic???? A color-blind pilot would not be a good fit for this process of landing on colored dots

[@practiCalfMRI]

I couldn't quite see the tail except as you rolled back upright but it looks like there was a little opposite rudder (Dutch roll)? I can see the right aileron alright. Full deflection!

[@SpreadAviation]

Opposite rudder certainly wasn’t intentional. More like insufficient rudder for the rate of roll. Not perfect, but still a good showing.

[@SpreadAviation]

Looking at it again, it’s a right roll with right rudder. You may be seeing the rudder horn which provides aerodynamic balance during rudder deflection. It is in front of the pivot so it moves opposite of the rest of the rudder.

[@practiCalfMRI]

@@SpreadAviation Oh right, that makes sense! It was a nice, crisp roll whatever you did. There wasn't enough time for the plane to turn, but I was still interested to see how you maintained the ground track.

It'd be cool to seen an acrobatic plane do a full around aileron roll for their rock. :)

[@SpreadAviation]

It’ll be somebody else. That spot meets the legal requirements for aerobatics, I’m just not willing to be “that guy”.

[@paulmorrow8372]

Im am not a pilot and obviously your wing rock was enjoyed by all (including tower). But I am curious, 91.303 defines “aerobatic flight” as “an intentional maneuver involving an abrupt change in the airplane’s attitude not necessary for normal flight”. Is a hard, 90 degree “wing rock” like that technically considered aerobatic flight? You mention aerobatic flight would be allowed at that time and place, so it would be fine. But I am just curious if a maneuver like that would be allowed whenever.

[@SpreadAviation]

Also that reg says “not necessary for normal flight”. There has cases tried in the past where airplane performed a maneuver perceived by the inspector to be an aerobatic maneuver, but when it went in front of the FAA they determined that for the operation that was being conducted, the maneuver in question was not unnecessary.
