That Comanche 400 at 32:47 is the most beautiful example I’ve ever seen. Immaculately restored right down to the shiny landing gear. Superb

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Yeah that was a really unique and beautiful airplane.

[@AviatorGM]

Haha... that intro in the tent... I experienced that also while there. Even filmed the side wall touching the floor. 😂. I stuck it out through Three storms like that actually. The camp ground was a mud pit. Almost packed up after the first storm... Glad I didn't puss out and stayed til Sunday night. Great time!

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Yeah a lot of people bugged out after that one on Wednesday, but no way I was missing out on the night Airshow…

[@fishhaulergreatlakes8208]

I'm amazed myself with the Tower and the airboss

[@BlueSkyFlight]

They do an absolutely fantastic job! It literally could not be what it is without all of their hard work

[@fishhaulergreatlakes8208]

@BlueSkyFlight MIT at it's best. Aim High!

[@colinworner5180]

Great video’s and info about the airshow. Wish to come over some day there. All the best from The Netherlands.

It will be well worth the trip. Just an unparalleled amount and variety of aircraft. Thank you for watching

Your external wing and tail camera shots are great!

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Thank you. Working on a better setup on the inside… thanks very much for watching

[@stevevlietstra629]

Oshkosh is a total blast. Wasn’t able to go past few years. But to anyone thinking of going. Parking and getting into the event is so easy. It’s very well thought of ❤️

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Couldn’t agree more. It a great time!

[@slushmore]

Great video. Remember to pack water or water bottles!

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Great tip… they do sell them of course, but certainly cheaper to bring your own. Thanks for the feedback and thank you for watching

[@bobwilson758]

So - it is well worth the 30 dollars a night for camping ! Cool & fun

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Couldn’t agree more.. had a fantastic time! Thanks for watching

[@sillybonfranz]

your videos were awesome! I really enjoyed this video and the one you did on what to expect heading into Oshkosh! We weren't able to go this year, but can't wait for next year! would love to meet you

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely be there. I’ll post when I’m going as we get close to the week of the 2024 show. Glad you liked the content… I’ll try to keep putting out good stuff I’ve got sone interesting flights planned

[@klowsley]

We taxied 3.5 hours that morning from the south 40!

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Yikes… I guess everyone that was there for the first half of the week had stayed for the fireworks on Wednesday night and headed out Thursday morning.

[@uncleroc]

This is awesome! Thanks for the advice on what to bring and what to expect from the facilities!

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Glad you liked it. Hope you subscribe to the channel. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!

[@davidmillersr.8395]

your EAA 2023 show fantastic I'm looking fwd to the year I go soon I hope. I've been member of EAA and Warbirds of America for 5 years now. I'll keep fwd for next videos Thank you

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Yeah you definitely have to make the trip. Made my first one up there last year. Have been to Sun-n-fun many times over the years... Oshkosh is several orders of magnitude larger and with soooo much more to see and do.

[@easttexan2933]

every time I see Oshkosh there are storms involved. that must be the norm for that area.

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Last year it was clear for the 4 days I was there and temperatures were fantastic. The storms that came through are usually very isolated and short. The one that morning was over in about 20 minutes. Most of the time it’s beautiful up there. Thank you very much for watching!

[@Staceyjohnson-pp2su]

The EAA Airshow in Oshkosh, wouldn't be complete without Mother Nature being a part of it, happens every year.

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Into every life a little rain must fall…. Yeah, and is usually very short duration.

[@wagnergitirana]

It’s like being an airline pilot at JFK airport and lined up for departure. Looooong line . A little taste ! I just hope they don’t bring those ATC guys from NYC to Oshkosh… that would be terrible ! 😁 Great video and information. I appreciate it. Thanks 👍🏻 By the way, you got a new subscriber on me. Cheers from Houston, Texas !

[@BlueSkyFlight]

LOL... Yeah, reminded me a lot of the taxi out of EWR oftentimes... Thanks for the comments and thank your VERY much for subscribing!

[@wagnergitirana]

Absolutely!

[@dirtcurt1]

Would a spray disinfectant work in the showers?

[@BlueSkyFlight]

You could do that if you want. Honestly, I felt like they were always pretty clean. Obviously the floor gets a little wet. That’s why I suggested the flip flops

[@Hemifan4266]

Great info, thank you for a great video!

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you very much for watching. Hope you consider subscribing :)

[@Hemifan4266]

@BlueSkyFlight - Liked and subscribed.

P-47 SEEMS MISSING

[@BlueSkyFlight]

Looking back on that video.. I realized there’s a lot of stuff I left out as far as airplanes and stuff walking around. I promise to cover it all more in depth next time… I’m gonna take a look through my footage and see if I have enough for a better video specifically on the show and the planes. Thank very much for the feedback
