I read that Google Maps recently updated the satellite image used for Wittman RegionalAirport at Oshkosh to use photos taken at some point during AirVenture2011. So I just had a look, and it's true.I managed to find 3 Pietenpols. Jack and Matt are parked in their Primo spot, besidethe Brown Arch. And I found Kevin's Piet in the Vintage area (I just lookedfor a pair of Crocs). Screen captures are attached.Kind of fun to see which planes you can identify.There are also a few RVs, Bonanzas, Cessnas .... zzzzzzzzBill C.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/899k ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: MSP to CHA ferry flight itinerary.

This whole flight planning on my own is hard work! Tried to get Delta to workme up a flight plan... but their software was a little confused by the speedsand altitudes. Anyhoo, if weather permits, gonna try to get out Monday morning. Not withstandinga little dodging airports, here's the plan.OEO (Osceola WI); Y51 (Veroqua WI, fuel stop); C37 (Brodhead WI, fuel stop); C77(Poplar Grove, fly by, maybe a quick landing); DTG (Dwight IL, overnight courtesyJoe, thanks!).DTG; SIV (Sullivan IN, fuel stop); [7k4, ohio county if necessary for fuel]; M54(Lebanon TN, fuel and meet Dale hopefully, thanks!) then last leg to 9A5 (LafayetteGA, mission complete).Each day is about 375 miles. I have been offered headsets, intercoms, GPS andall sorts of goodies by folks here for the trip, but I think I'm covered and reallyreally appreciate the offers. I have two hand held gps's, a radio, goodheadsets, intercom (flying with my 18yr old son). He is printing up the tripusing satellite data courtesy runwayfinder.com and we've got current vfr sectionalsI'm plotting today. Always willing to divert this way or that if anyone is around a nearby airfieldand wants to share a cup of coffee or something. Really looking forward to thistrip! If weather keeps us out on Monday, gonna try again after the 20th.Cheers,MikeRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Google satellite photo
