We are working on it now! If you can attend, we are gathering at KDLL starting on Wednesday July 21, and will brief Friday evening and depart Saturday morning for KOSH. If you are planning to participate, please let me know your "N" number and how many people are in your party. I am putting a spreadsheet together because we only have 50 spots, and I want to make sure everyone gets a place to park. We also have the Tall Pines reserved for Sunday evening for a get together and a catered dinner, so if you want to attend, please let me know that as well.
We will not be flying in a formation, but it will be an ant trail nose to tail into KOSH. We want everyone to have a great time and be safe! Make sure you have a copy of the NOTAM
Please either PM me or email me with your information.
Hope to see everyone at Oshkosh!
Having worked the mass arrivals as a volunteer we aren’t a mass arrival. That is when everybody gets shut off at Ripon while they land. Since we are just going to be an ant trail they will just run us up the tracks and then we’ll have a credential that shows we go to special parking. I’d rather do it this way vs all the formation training to do the mass formation.

The watch-out for the in trail arrival; everybody has the same altimeter setting, flys the same altitude and airspeed and maintains at least 1/2 mile separation.
The 2009 and in trail SWPC arrival came apart and got disorganized for the above reasons and a lower than expected ceiling and visibility.
Sorry for the delay in updating everyone. Okay I think I have finally gotten a handle on everything with the you have to get approval from everyone in the world before you can do this. I have finally received the last approval and everything is set!
Baraboo airport KDLL is ready to start receiving airplanes and pilots on Wednesday July 21
