EAA Air Venture OSHKOSH 2011
Held annually during the last week of July at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, Wis., EAA AirVenture Oshkosh serves as one of the world's premier aviation events – attracting top government officials, corporate leaders and hundreds of thousands of aviation enthusiasts from around the world.
It spans the entire spectrum of aviation and attracts 10,000 airplanes each year. The more than 500,000 aviation enthusiasts who attend the event annually supply the local and state economies with more than a $110-million boost during the event.
An AirVenture participant can study the latest aircraft and innovations, discover new ideas and techniques from the nearly 1,000 forums and workshops, see aviation's top personalities, or just talk airplanes with people from around the world.
EAA AirVenture has become important and influential but retains its friendly and personal feel — part of the reason the world comes to Oshkosh every year.
