EAA Releases Oshkosh Notice for AirVenture 2024

Thursday, May 23, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

The Oshkosh Notice for AirVenture 2024 (commonly referred to as the Oshkosh NOTAM) has been released for EAA's annual fly-in convention to be held July 22-28 at Wittman Regional Airport (KOSH) in Oshkosh, WI.

The Notice, which is in effect from noon CDT on Thursday, July 18 until noon CDT on Monday, July 29, 2024, outlines procedures for the many types of aircraft that fly to Oshkosh for the event, as well as aircraft that land at nearby airports.  The Notice was designed by the FAA to assist pilots in their EAA AirVenture flight planning.

While the overall procedure is similar to past years, there are some changes compared to the 2023 version. Some of those changes include:

  • A TFR will be in effect in MKE airspace from July 15-18
  • A new Fisk holding procedure has been established
  • No FISK arrivals before 8am CDT on Thursday, July 25

The ATC-assignable transition points approaching Oshkosh from the west that will ease holding and congestion will again be in effect in 2024. These points are at Endeavor Bridge (VPENV), Puckaway Lake (VPPLK), and Green Lake (VPGRN). They will be announced on the arrival ATIS when ATC activates them at times of highest traffic flows.

Pilots can acquire a digital version of the Notice HERE or by downloading it through the EAA AirVenture website. For a free printed copy, pilots can order online or call EAA Membership Services at (800) 564-6322.

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.

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

Updated FAA Guidance for Using EFBs

Wednesday, March 6, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

The FAA has released AC 91-78A, updating guidance for aircraft owners, operators, and pilots under Title 14 CFR part 91 on using Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs). This update simplifies replacing traditional paper information with digital solutions, including hosted database and software applications, while ensuring regulatory compliance.

EFBs like iFlightPlanner have been be a game-changer, allowing pilots to store and retrieve essential flight information electronically, such flight plans, regulatory compliant weather briefs, weight and balance calculations, aeronautical charts, and more.  The new guidance clears the way for fully digitized cockpits, provided the digital information meets specific criteria: it must not replace required aircraft systems, should be equivalent to the paper versions, must be current and accurate, and should not interfere with flight operations.

Additionally, the AC recommends assessments for human-machine interface and Crew Resource Management (CRM), and highlights the importance of training and security procedures to ensure safe and effective use of EFBs.
