Seems like a question for AirplaneFreak2000.
I know the Tora Bomb Squad will be there. Not sure about the full show.
We were never scheduled. Only pyro!
Thanks. Someone posted in mid March on the 2023 Tora! Tora! Tora! Schedule page that the "updated" schedule included Oshkosh for the weekend.

Yes there has been some confusion on our schedule by not labeling shows that are pyro only. It has been mentioned.

We love to go the Sunday before. Arrivals are cool however if you buy a Monday bracelet I think it counts for Sunday .

From what I've heard it is unlikely that the MiG-21 from RFD will go to OSH.

Is there any chance the Goodyear blimp will be attending this year's show?

Looks like B-17 Yankee Lady is back up and running starting next week. They still list Oshkosh on their schedule!

What time do the gates open? I’ve seen some sources say 8 and some say 7.

Hotels get booked almost a year out. at this point you'd need to look at Fondulac or Appleton, if not further out. Lots of people do airb&bs since many in Oshkosh choose this week to go on summer vacation and rent out their homes.
