With no AirVenture Oshkosh convention in 2020 due to the pandemic, officials at the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) have had well over a year to put some serious thought into ways their 2021 AirVenture Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) can better serve the thousands of pilots who fly into the show each summer. The 32-page notam for AirVenture 2021 has now been released and reflects numerous changes that all inbound pilots need to read and know.
EAA’s AirVenture 2021 Notam Introduces Numerous Changes
Key Takeaways:
- The 2021 EAA AirVenture NOTAM has been released with significant FAA-approved changes to arrival and departure procedures for the July 26-August 1 fly-in at Wittman Regional Airport (KOSH).
- A key update introduces new ATC-assignable transition points (Endeavor Bridge, Puckaway Lake, Green Lake) on the FISK VFR Arrival from the west, designed to ease holding and congestion by extending the approach system, and will be announced via ATIS when activated.
- Pilots are strongly urged to thoroughly read and understand the entire 32-page NOTAM and ensure appropriate cross-country proficiency for safe operations at this year's event.
- Additional resources include attending a June 23 webinar on the NOTAM changes, texting OSHARRIVAL to 64600 for updates, and monitoring LiveATC.net for KOSH frequencies.
