Question about EAA AirVenture 2019...

[Rami]

Hey guys,

I have a question for you. I have to go back out to the Mayo Clinic for more venous surgery on July 17th and 18th, 2019. I will be in Rochester, MN during that time. German Fest in Milwaukee is the following weekend, and I also know that the EAA Air Show is from July 22nd to July 28th, 2019. So I'd like to pull off a trifecta.

I would love to go to OshKosh for at least a day or two, but depending on what they do, they could just to another roto-rooter round through my jugular or open up my lower back to place in stents. If it's the latter, I may be too sore to do a lot of walking, but I would still love to go. Do you know if the event would have ground transport, and/or wheelchairs for day rental?

S*it, if I have to I'll have them wheel me through the joint on my hospital gurney.

I haven't been there in a few years, and would love to go again, since I'll be out there so darn close to the Air Show week!

Rami, I haven't been there in six years, but on my last visit I rented a mobility scooter for $65/day.
