Each July, Oshkosh Wisconsin becomes home to hundreds of thousands of aviation enthusiasts from all corners of the world as visitors flock to EAA AirVenture. Started in September of 1953, the gathering has grown into the world’s foremost aviation event. During the week, roughly 10,000 attending aircraft transform Wittman Field from a quiet country airport to the world’s busiest air traffic control center.

Visitors celebrated both new and old alike, from Virgin Galactic’s public unveiling of the WhiteKnightTwo to the 60th anniversary of the T-28s. Certain aircraft, however, made a particularly sizeable impression on guests including the “Elvis” Skycrane, the C-130, and the world’s largest airliner, the Airbus A380.
