Oshkosh for FOD and me is usually mostly unplanned and organic.  That’s still the case.  But we’re planning on a few touch points during our stay Wednesday 25 July through Saturday 28 July.

Wednesday 25 July (or almost any other evening after other stuff is done) Evening – Firebase Airspeed Informal Get-Togethers

I’m arriving Wednesday by car and will tweet or otherwise broadcast the lat/long of Firebase Airspeed, my campsite in Scholler shortly after arrival. Unlike in past years, I’ll probably be a little more remote with more room for FOD to build a fire and destroy things, as 10-year-olds are wont to do. I’ll bring my usual assortment of musical instruments (guitars, pipes, whistles, etc.) and any who are moved to sing, speak, or perform interpretive dances will be given due attention. Frankly, this stuff will likely go on every evening to some extent, but Wednesday seems to be the least conflicted. Please wander by if you’re in the neighborhood. Very informal. No reservations or necktie required. Watch for lat/long in my Twitter feed (@StephenForce).

Thursday 26 July 6:00 to 8:00 pm – UCAP Tiedown Party

The Uncontrolled Airspace podcast will hold its annual beer bust at the “Super-8 Gate” (43.993717,-88.574626) near the northwest corner of the field. BYO or drink what’s there. I plan to be prancing about with that dreaded round bottle of rocket fuel as well. This is the first year that the UCAP beer thing and the Sennheiser/ myTransponder Podapalooza/social media thing have been deconflicted, so we have the opportunity to hang with Jack, Jeb, and Dave. Please show up and show Jack Hodgson , Jeb Burnside , and Dave Higdon the love. I’ll be there doing the same.

Friday 27 July 11:30 am to 1:00 pm – IAC Presentation

David Allen and I will be presenting at the IAC Pavilion on the grounds. The topic is “Shooting Aerobatic Video.” There will also be updates on post-production, etc. The IAC Pavilion is a few hundred feet back from the crowd line at show center. Lots of people have already RSVP’ed and I’m sure that they’d welcome the opportunity to meet you.

Friday 27 July 6:00 pm to ??? – Podapalooza

myTransponder and Sennheiser USA will be hosting Podapalooza at the Sennheiser tent. New-media and social-media personalities will abound. More prancing and more dreaded round bottle, too. Come by and meet your favorite new- and social-media personalities.
