Oshkosh Wisc 2003

Going to Air Venture

At Oshkosh, WI

Miles and miles of desert. Gets boring after the first 10 minutes.
Leaving the beautiful scenery of the Tetons, we entered the drab desert of Wyoming. It was interesting for about 2 minutes, and then we were looking forward to another change. It took us 2.6 hours to get from Driggs to Buffalo, Wyoming, where we experienced the strongest and squirelliest crosswind I have ever experienced. I am being really thankful I built a tricycle and not a tail dragger! My plane is phenominally stable in a crosswind, unlike its tail dragger brothers. Not only was it very windy, but was also hot.
