Once again, we're located in the North Aircraft Display

Builder
Gatherings:
New for this year at Oshkosh are two scheduled Builder
Gathering events. The informal gatherings are being held on:
- Tuesday, July 26th
from 4pm to 5pm
- Saturday, July
30th from 4pm to 5pm
This is your time
to have the Zenith Booth (tent hangar) as a builders' meeting
arena; a time to have the Zenith crew all to yourselves and ask
technical questions with the appropriate aircraft at hand; a
chance to have your picture taken with Chris Heintz on the
Tuesday, and a great place to meet other builders and talk Zenith
aircraft. This year Zenith is going to have their large
"hanger tent" in the display area which will be a
welcome reprieve from the sun and elements. With the ability of
having a few aircraft under shade, there is ample room for the
gathering.
