Went to fryar tucks and had my first spotted cow, nice. Will be here till wed.
Sacred Heart over by the Bus Stop behind Admission Entry Gate best burgers/brats for $3.
Our flight of two made it! It was a challenge getting out of KMOR at 0630 this AM. Rain and bunch of low clouds. Solid undercast took us up to 11,500. We got off the undercast about Sumerset Ky.
Landed for fuel in bumpy and gusty conditions at Danville, IL. Gas prices too high!
Just north of Danville we had to get under the overcast down to 2900-2500ft. Last 125 miles at about 1500ft AGL.
30+ knot headwind almost the entire flight.
Very cool and windy here at Osh. Had a huge crosswind on 36L.
Parked and tied down:
I lost my alternator over Ripon, fortunately I was following over RV's in.
I need a replacement for a 540. I'll start looking in the morning, anyone with ideas please let me know.
Hey Jeff, what is the total for RV's today? Looks like HBP was really full.
Pretty sure Plane Power(booth 1114) will have a booth. B&C (booth 1155)is usually there as well.
That's my preferred choice, but not sure if it will require a belt swap.
Assuming your concern is with the sheave diameter - how about swapping sheaves from old alt to new???? Or calling your existing supplier (if it's possible that they're not at Oshkosh) and asking them to FedEx one to you. Or buy a nice used one at the Fly Market. Or there's always the Autozone in Oshkosh......
It's a stock Vans (old before PP) Alt.
WOW!!! No wonder you bought the week long pass!
Best performers of the entire week, from Friday afternoon.

There was much excitement and positive comments from the crowd.
