EAA AirVenture
2022 Notice Released
Document is
required reading for Oshkosh-bound pilots
EAA AVIATION
CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (May 25, 2022)
There are several important
Federal Aviation Administration-approved changes in the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh
2022 Notice (commonly referred to as the Oshkosh NOTAM), featuring arrival and
departure procedures for the Experimental Aircraft Association’s 69th fly-in
convention on July 25-31 at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh. These changes
are based on pilot feedback and FAA review of arrival procedure
recommendations.
The document is in effect from
noon CDT on Thursday, July 21, until 6 a.m. CDT on Monday, August 1, and
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.
It is now known as the Oshkosh Notice instead of a NOTAM because of a changed
FAA internal procedure.
Some of the 2022 changes include:
- The
document is now officially called a Notice by the FAA, rather than a
NOTAM.
- Two
VORs have been decommissioned (RFD and MBL).
- Several
IFR routings have been changed.
- Aircraft
camping is no longer allowed at Appleton International Airport (ATW).
- Miscellaneous
editorial updates.
The ATC-assignable transition
points approaching Oshkosh from the west that will ease holding and congestion
will again be in effect in 2022. These points are at Endeavor Bridge, Puckaway
Lake, and Green Lake. They will be announced on the arrival ATIS when ATC
activates them at times of highest traffic flows
“The most essential information
for any pilot flying to Oshkosh involves reading and thoroughly understanding
the 2022 AirVenture Notice to ensure safe operations on arrival and departure,”
said Sean Elliott, EAA’s vice president of advocacy and safety. “Although the
designation may have been changed by the FAA, the document still states the
official requirements and expectations for pilots. We also urge all pilots to
log appropriate cross-country time prior to their trip to Oshkosh so they have
the proficiency and confidence to fly safely.”
EAA is also hosting a webinar on
June 22 at 7 p.m. regarding flying to AirVenture 2022 and
changes in this year’s Notice. Pilots are encouraged to participate to build
their knowledge prior to their flights to Oshkosh.
This year’s NOTAM cover features
a Heritage Flight formation over Oshkosh. Pilots can download a digital version
of the Notice at EAA.org/NOTAM, or order a free printed
copy via that website or by calling EAA Membership Services at 800-564-6322.
