Warbird Arrival at AirVenture 2023 READ THE NOTAM 

I listened to this entire exchange on the radio. It got even nuttier a few minutes behind you.

I’m sure it did!

Thank you! Hope you had a good time.

Nice

You never forgot your first

And I would call that a calm day. Lol

Thank you!

Perfect timing! Thank you!

Thanks for watching

Safe travels!

See you there!

Thank you

Thank you!

Do eet.

Baller! Thanks for watching!

Thank you! Hope you get to experience the spectacle!

@@SpreadAviation 🤙

It’s paint. Come see it!

@@SpreadAviation Wow thats awesome dude, sadly im not at osh! Next year I will.

Thank you!

For the adventure! Did the FISKE last (6) year(s), wanted to do something new this year.

Formation next year

LOL. I don’t think that was it but my that’s funny

Well click Subscribe and get to know me. Also on Instagram!

Much hotter. Last year I had sun shades in while flying to keep it cool.

@@SpreadAviation Wow okay. Thanks for letting me know. My dream plane is the Sw51 Mustang, something to definitely take into consideration. Then again, I am in Canada - BC. So we don't get that much heat here, lots to think about :) Thanks for your reply!

With a Mustang you can open the canopy. If I try that in the Extra it will fly off as designed for easy bailouts.

Yup!

I was in Sunday and again on Thursday but 27 then.

@@SpreadAviation We rolled in Sunday as well, fairly early because the plane behind us blew a tire and they shut the runway down briefly.

Never mind. I found the video. :)

Awesome! Thanks for asking!

Yeah I’ll be here. The airplane is at the IAC pavilion in show center. The model is an Extra 300.

@@SpreadAviation Thanks for the reply. I’ll be there to see your Extra and take some pictures if you are not out flying the Extra. Not comparing RC flying to full size planes. Back in my RC days, the Carl Goldberg Extra 300 was a favorite model and fun plane to fly. One guy in the club had three of them.

It’s a great platform. The RC version certainly out performs me.

@@SpreadAviation Plan on being at EAA today (Thursday). First stop will be the IAC pavilion.

I’ll be there around 9:30

Yes. The plan right now is Wednesday and Thursday.

I relaxed the stick before touching down on the runway. Landings should really only have the stick traveling aft until touchdown. I pushed and *plopped* which is a big no-no. And I knew better too. 😆

@@SpreadAviation Thanks. I was thinking you were a tad fast so perhaps a planned wheel landing would have been a better option?

@practiCalfMRI $shamefully$ It was supposed to be a wheel landing 😂

@@SpreadAviation Also, in the spirit of going public with bloopers, I recently got back in the air after a decade away. In a Citabria, even though most of my latter hours were in a Great Lakes. Evidently, I decided not to use the green arc to remind me of the 7ECA stall speed and was a good 10 mph fast on every single approach. Sigh. No wonder all my three pointers were "arrivals." Next time up I will be at 70 over the fence, not 80. Like you say, I knew better!

@practiCalfMRI I learned Tailwheel in a 7ECA. They’re the perfect trainer. Keep you honest, show you what you need to see, and forgiving of mistakes. Fly safe!

FAA waypoint and part of the arrival procedure into Oshkosh.

FISK?

@@swiftadventurer It's a town in Wisconsin

@@SpreadAviation I know FISK is the town; I've done the approach. Wondering if FISKE was something else.

@swiftadventurer it’s the RNAV fix

It was awesome to share the sky with a Corsair… and a little ominous when he was creeping up on my tail.

Those Corsairs are cool… They typically send the Warbird hold to 27. But that was different… Never seen the warbird arrival… Thanks for the ride.

@@SpreadAviation Not many folk can claim they had a Corsair creeping up on their tail these days!

Of course!

Then why does the Chilean Air Force fly them? #checkmate

@@SpreadAviation so all SR-22s should fly the warbird arrival by that logic?

You haven’t listed a military that uses the SR-22.

The purpose of the warbird approach is so that aircraft which would have a hard time operating safely at the slow speeds and low altitudes of the normal approach have a way to do so closer to their normal operating speeds. A fellow aerobatic competitor flew in a Twin Comanche and was already having a hard time keeping it flying at 90 when the Cherokee he was following dropped full flaps at midfield downwind and slowed to 65. You’re not keeping a Twin Comanche in the air that slow and it creates a collision hazard. There’s nothing in the NOTAM that says you can’t do the procedure, but you must be able to maintain the high speeds of the other airplanes.

@@SpreadAviation no, that’s the purpose of the 130kt Fisk arrival at 2300 feet. Did you read the Notam? “Maintain 90 knots (or maximum cruise speed if below 90 knots) and 1,800’ MSL. If unable, maintain 135 knots and 2,300’ MSL.”
