Spring Is TRULY Here: Oshkosh 2007 NOTAM Now Available

New Arrival ATIS Freq, IFR Slot Confirmation Process Among Changes

For some, the first telltale signs of spring are found not in blooming flowers and warmer temperatures -- or even the calendar. No, for pilots it's not truly springtime until the Notice to Airmen for arrival and departure procedures for the annual EAA AirVenture Fly-In are published.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has released the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2007 Notice to Airmen (NOTAM), featuring arrival and departure procedures for the Experimental Aircraft Association's 55th annual fly-in. The event -- billed by the EAA as "The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration" -- kicks off July 23-29 at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, WI.

The NOTAM, which is in effect July 20-29, outlines procedures for the many types of aircraft that fly to Oshkosh for the event, as well as aircraft that land at nearby airports. It was designed by FAA, in partnership with EAA, to assist pilots in their AirVenture flight planning.

There are some noteworthy changes compared to the 2006 version of the NOTAM. Those changes include a new AirVenture arrival ATIS frequency at 118.75; procedures beginning a day earlier, on Friday, July 20; a new helicopter landing area; changes in the IFR slot reservation confirmation process; and expanded Flight Service Briefing Annex hours.

A high influx of VFR arrivals is expected to begin at Oshkosh on Saturday and Sunday, July 21-22. Besides following the published arrival and departure procedures in the AirVenture NOTAM, pilots should maintain high vigilance in watching for other aircraft.

The EAA has made it as easy as possible for pilots flying into OSH to obtain a copy of the NOTAM. The on-line Adobe Acrobat (pdf) version of the NOTAM is available in the "Plan For It/Pilot Information" area of the EAA AirVenture web site, at the FMI link below. A 28-page printed NOTAM is available by calling EAA Membership Services at 800-564-6322 or through the EAA AirVenture web site.

Additional hints and tips for pilots arriving at and departing from EAA AirVenture 2007 are available online.
