Sunday 7/26 update #6: Aircraft arrivals

As many vintage, warbird and homebuilt aircraft that could be safely parked have been positioned in the showplane areas -- more than 350 today -- so Wittman Regional closed to new arrivals at 2 pm CDT today. Will continue to look for dry locations and move aircraft off taxiways to grass parking over next few hours, then re-evaluate at 5 p.m.

Aircraft being parked in commercial exhibits will continue to be accepted. Most of those airplanes have already arrived and have been positioned.

North 40 continues to dry well. Promising for Monday but will continue to check every hour and make determination late today or Monday morning.

Fond du Lac (FLD) has aircraft camping available and Appleton and Manitowoc have aircraft parking.

Updated parking information also available at www.airventure.org/aircraft/parking_status.asp.
