The EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, renowned as "The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration," is expected to draw more than half a million spectators from over 80 countries. This year, the event will feature an extraordinary lineup of aircraft, including fighter jets, bombers, ultralights, drones, seaplanes, home-built kit aircraft, jumbo jets, and acrobatic planes, among others. The annual event features air shows, aircraft displays, workshops, forums, and various family-friendly activities.
