Any plans to visit the Upper Midwest this year?
Maybe even a week in late July in the land of Beer and Bratwurst?
I've never seen N3703G in person, but sure would like to.

I don't know the exact schedule, but we usually hit most areas of the country during the course of the tour. I'm pretty sure we will not be doing Oshkosh (AirVenture), as we can't sell rides at that event. Now, if someone wants to pay our way................

Just curious, what prevents you from giving rides at an event like the EAA's Airventure?

The EAA sells rides on Aluminum Overcast during Airventure and, understandably, doesn't want competition for the money. At most other "weekend" air shows, the airspace restrictions due to aerobatic acts and such make it very difficult to do a good ride program, so we tend to not do air shows.......

I'm afraid I don't know the schedule beyond what is on our website, but if I had to guess, after the San Diego stop on April 5-6, we'll probably be headed north (if previous years pattern holds true). I'm not aware of any plan to be at Planes of Fame, but it sure would be fun!
