EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2018: Salute to Beechcraft

By Fred Harl

The Aero Experience continues our salute to classic and modern Beechcraft types following the Beech Party with this look at aircraft we saw this summer at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2018. It was not difficult to find the Beech 18s and Staggerwings. Next, we found plenty of Musketeers, Sundowners, Bonanzas, T-34 Mentors, Barons and King Airs to go around. We hope you like this little Beechcraft survey and check back often as we include our signature coverage of EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2018 amid our continuous promotion of Midwest Aviation!

EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2016: General Aviation - The World of Textron

Fred Harl and Carmelo Turdo

The Aero Experience begins our series of general aviation at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2016 with the exhibit and attending aircraft from the Textron stable of brands.  The large exhibit area included examples mostly from the Beechcraft and Cessna lines, though other brands also include Hawker and Bell Helicopter as well.   The brand new aircraft on display included the Cessna TTX, Citation, Turbo Stationair, Skylane, Skyhawk, and Grand Caravan along with the Beechcraft Bonanza, Baron, and King Air.  In future editions, we will feature each model and also more examples in the Vintage Aircraft series this spring.
