Scott … this is exactly what I would want to see! I’m 74 yrs old and crippled and since I was a child have loved airplanes. A friend of our family had a WACO UPF-7 but I never got to ride in it before it was sold. I never got to OSHKOSH either, but I feel I’ve been there because of your video. Thank You Sir!

Hi Scott! Greetings from a fellow pilot, aircraft owner, and Texan. I currently own a P28S (Turbo Arrow III), based at 1T7 (Kestrel Airpark). I have been to OSH three times (2013, 2015, and in 2020) and I loved it. I hope to return in a couple of years since it never gets old for me.

I liked this format, Scott. It was more like being there and wandering around than the average Oshkosh replay. You picked some great, out of the ordinary, birds to focus on. I mean...we all love Mustangs but I have never experienced a water landing in an Albatross and that Helldiver was spectacular. Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely loved the ride in the Albatros, those young men are a great team and obviously great pilots! I've never flown in a seaplane but that was a fantastic ride, thank you! The entire video was great, had to miss this year.

Scott, Having been to OSH and flying in about 17 times, I was there all through the 90s and up to 2006 and again in 2023. You have the best overall video yet. I love the Albatross footage especially the engine start with the co-pilot counting blades. I remember counting blades in the CV440 and DC-7F i got a few hours in. Your photography of the Albatross (water) takeoffs were the best. Thank you so much, big radios make the best music, but V-12's ain't bad.

Hey Scott. Loved this production, notably your studio voice narrative over clean event-audio on those many interesting plane filmings. Love my dad’s steed, the horsey one. My brother (older by 3 yrs) and me were there he said, when dad did ‘batics over our summer lake. I have never remembered, was probably 2. .. Dad was playing then, like when he beat up a nearby lake with an Orenda version Sabre. Heard from by my first summer job supervisor there, older enough than me. Service in the 40’s with Ferry Command, north and south Atlantic routes in Mitchells, later CW France and England in 86’s. I’ve long given him slack for parenting lapses, along with my Army nurse mom, due to (my-take) PTSDs stuff. But they were great parents, did us kids well.

Thanks for giving us a taste of the event. Not a pilot or plane owner, but I like most anything mechanical. The wife and I used to do two week trips on a Goldwing motorcycle, one year we put OshKosh on our agenda. When we arrived we inquired about tickets to get in and walk around and look at and take pictures of the planes, that’s when we discovered that you have to be a member of the EAA in order to get in. Membership and tickets for the two of us was going to be something like $150, we passed, so this is the next best thing.

The Corsair and P51 that were letting people get in belongs to the Mid-America Flight Museum in Mount Pleasant, TX. When I talked to Scott on Thursday he said that over 2000 people had sat in the P51 so far that week. Scott Glover and his staff are good people and truly care about these WWII and older aircraft. Airplanes and Coffee will be at the museum in November.

I guess you realize by now your voiceover was basically unintelligible. In the future I would suggest muting the video sound if you have something to say briefly, otherwise just let the engines do your talking. Stay away from giving history lessons when engines are rumbling by. That's what we want to hear. Thanks for sharing Scott. We all appreciate the hard work you have put into these videos. I gotta tell ya, that ride in the twin seaplane you made was awesome. I kept waiting for full power on T/O and I was not disappointed. Chills up my neck. Nothing like round sound up close. Awesome. I noticed that Dan and his drama was missing from the video lol.
