I recall flying over the tracks past Fisk at 100 kts with about 50% flaps because that is as slow as I wish to go. Fortuantely last year (first time there in the Legacy) I did not have anyone in front of me. It all worked out but imagine getting behind a Cessna 140 with flaps down. What will you do? Me, I will pass him! Upon review of the Notams published for Oshkosh, page 7, Safety Alert: Aircraft at both altitudes and speeds may be merging over Fisk at 1800' MSL for final approach into Oshkosh. Art Jensen
