Oshkosh Airventure 2009

July 27 - Aug 2nd  Oshkosh, WI

We had a good turn out at the EAA Airventure Fly-In this year and overall attendance was quite high.  Mustangs flew in from all over the country.   There were at least 16 Mustang's scattered between the flight line and homebuilt camping. 

John Keich (M-I) once again competed in the AirVenture Cup Race and had a great time coming in 2nd in his class.  More info is located at  www.airventurecup.com  There is rumor that this may have been the last year for the race.
