Steve: Please consider stopping in Three Forks Montana on the returntrip. The annual Montana Antique and Classic Aircraft fly in is heldon the weekend following Oshkosh, and is a great little fly in withmany antique and classic aircraft as well as homebuilts and ULs. BobKamerman of Churchill Mt. keeps his Piet in a Hanger there and mayhave his Tailwind completed and on display there. It is an easy goingfriendly local fly in which attracts more and more Oshkosh returntraffic as well as locals each year. This event is small enough tostill be fun, and I would highly recommend it to anybody returningfrom Oshkosh. I've attended this for many years. H.W.-----Original Message-----
