Dan,

A couple of things.

When they insist you lower your gear 20 miles out, go ahead and = lower -=20 then raise it again after you pass that checkpoint. ( Just don't = forget it=20 later on)

The higher altitude works OK but remember, our LNC2's have = extremely small=20 visibility from in front. Don't rely on a controller to keep you=20 separated.

Once on final, I had a jet in camo paint right below me. (I was = making two=20 shadows and told the controller I'd be doing a 360)

If you park with the other Lancairs near the factory tent, there = are some=20 nice camping spots within walking distance. (Over by the = theater)

LML Gang,

I haven't flown into OSH in many years and it was always in a = slow 172=20 where the specified 90kts was not an issue.

I'd sure prefer the = 135kts for=20 engine and oil cooling as well as safety margin for when I get behind = someone=20 that is only doing 75kts.

Any other OSH arrival tips appreciated, including the camping = situation=20 for the experimentals.

Thanks!
