CAF's P-51 Red Nose will be on the ground at Oshkosh in 45 min, then off to Madison to meet up with the rest of the CAF aircraft.

Around 6pm hopefully over Oshkosh the CAF will enter with Red Nose, Serfury, Hellcat, T33 and a Yak-3. As soon as they leave Madison I will will post an updated arrival time.

Negtive on the zero.

CAF's birds will be
P-51 Red Nose, Red Tail, and Gunfighter
Hellcat
Seafury
B-25 Devil Dog
T-33

I think that is it, pretty cool showing.

Thank you for the link, JBrawner, and for the updates about the CAF flight, Philip. I have been catching glimpses here and there - enjoyed watching "Red Nose" land, and see several classic 1920's/30's aircraft taxi by, where it is easier to see them. I'm looking forward to catching the CAF flight later on!

If I do go, it likely won't be until Friday, so it is going to be a long week. I'm looking forward to any and all photos from the event!
