Does anyone know if there is going to be anyone selling rides at Air Venture in a DC-3, C-47 or anything like that? Thanks in advance.

Ummm...not quite sure. I know they always wave rides for Aluminum Overcast and the Ford Tri-motor but I've never heard of any rides on a DC-3 or C-47.

The Tri motor ride is a must. I am going to do that up.

Mustang Driver,

The Yankee Air Museum is running their C-47 into Oshkosh most days from Willow Run. The excursions are open to members only and there're all sold out ( no suprise really )

http://yankeeairmuseum.org/aircraft/membertrips.shtml

To all attending Oskosh this year ~ have a great time ~ fly safe :D
