Subject: Pietenpol-List: Runway Finder-- GREAT web site Greg Cardinal ! 80thAnniversary OSH Fly-in updatewww.runwayfinder.com is a good site with active sectionals that can be used for flight planning.GREAT web site Greg ! Did any of you guys try this ?? You can zoom in, drag around the entire United States just like you would a Google Map. I will checkout Wapun as a possible stop from Brodhead to Oshkosh.Is anyone thinking of simply flying nonstop from Brodhead to OSH via the FISK approach ? That is my thought as winds are notoriously calmer in the morning hours but...it is what it is when you get there.Mike C.________________________________________________________________________________

What I like about Runwayfinder.com is the ability to enter airport identifiers and it will draw a course line complete with distances. Very nice for flight planning.Brodhead - direct - Oshkosh is good if you have a radio. Those of us doing the nordo thing will have to make a stop.Waupun is very convenient for both the Fisk arrival and the ultralight arrival. Hopefully we can all get into OSH before any significant wind kicks up.Greg ----- Original Message -----
