Default The Last Time at Oshkosh

I'm sure some of you big aviation enthusiasts have heard that this is the last time there will ever be the big group of C-47's and DC-3's at Oshkosh airshow.

I live 20 minutes away from Whiteside County Bittorf field (it's in Flight simulator 2004 and X) and my girlfriend has connections in the airport, so she helped me get in. There's already 7 DC-3's at the airfield and I will be helping with things there until Monday/Tuesday. I should be getting my new phone tomorrow, I'll snap some pictures. There's a spooky there, one of those fire support C-47's, I think they were in 'Nam.
either way I'll keep you guys updated

EDIT:
John Travolta will be there.

well, I have a few pictures, and a video of a fly-by. The video is tiny but the noise came through crystal.
I'll jump on photobucket and upload as many of them as I can.
