EAA is the "Spirit of Aviation," dedicated to keeping aviation fun, accessible, and safe. During the last week of July every year, the family of EAA members gathers and invites the world to participate. Wittman Regional Airport becomes a magical place where innovation, experimentation, and imagination aren't just buzzwords - they actually describe these average-Joe rocket scientists.
As you arrive, the number of people, size of the site and the rows and rows of magnificent aircraft are simply overwhelming. If you were to walk past ... not down ... each row of airplanes, you would cover 5.2 miles! Typically about 2,500 show aircraft participate at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, including homebuilts, antiques, classics, warbirds, ultralights and rotorcraft.
