ANN-E-I-C Note: As you read this, over 2 dozen
ANN staffers, stringers and associates are trying to recover
from working their (expletive deleted)'s off at the annual
Oshkosh aerial insane asylum. We shot a record amount of material
(and dozens of amazing Aero-TV and Aero-Cast programs are now
undergoing development), wrote more stories than ever before, and
quite simply, had a blast working ourselves into a state of
semi-consciousness with the BEST Oshkosh Crew we've EVER assembled.
We will be re-running our carefully crafted Aero-TV Daily reports
each day this week so that those of you who were at the "Big
O" can see what we did while you were in Wisconsin trying to dry
off and relive the best of the truly amazing (if soggy) week
that was Oshkosh 2010.
Following that, we have some surprises for you... big
ones -- REALLY big ones. And that means more than just dozens
of REALLY great new stories, even greater Aero-TV programs (using
some really slick new cameras that will blow you away), and some
truly amazing Aero-Casts... and then... well... how about ANN's
most aggressive site upgrade in the last five years?
That's right! There's a whole new ANN site coming
SOON... and it will debut in a matter of days... and
that's ONLY A SMALL PART OF THE GREAT NEW THINGS WE HAVE COMING
YOUR WAY... stay tuned!!! -- Jim Campbell, Deeply Fatigued and
Somewhat Soggy Editor-In-Chief/CEO (Guy Who Takes The Blame).

The morning brought a gathering of women in aviation called

Chabrian afterward.
