2024 AirVenture, Oshkosh Arrival & Departure Signs

Wednesday, June 19, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

The 2024 AirVenture Notice specifies sign codes used to inform ground personnel of your desired parking area at Wittman Regional Airport (KOSH).  You'll need to display one of these signs for your arrival and another for departure based on your aircraft type and parking or camping preference. 

Arrival Signs

NOTE: Requests for the North 40 or South 40 areas are NOT guaranteed.

Departure Signs

Please know this Notice does not supersede restrictions contained in other FDC NOTAMs, however it is required reading and should be part of every pilot's preflight preparation.

This year's arrival and departure signs are again produced in partnership with iFlightPlanner for AOPA, the powerful web interface for AOPA members to plan flights using hi-res charts and weather imagery, retrieve regulatory compliant weather briefs, file flight plans, and much more!

Remember to print your arrival and departure signs before your trip and fly safe!
