EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2015: Forums and Workshops

Fred Harl and Carmelo Turdo
http://www.airassociatesmo.com/tae/EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2015 offers opportunities for members and visitors to attend forums and workshops throughout the week.  In the true spirit of EAA's roots in the area of homebuilt aircraft, expert instruction is available for learning skills such as building wood wing ribs, covering aircraft with modern fabric and sealers, and welding in the workshops.  In the nearby forum pavilions, presentations are given on the history of various aircraft types, such as the DC-3, and historic events including the anniversary of the Apollo 13 mission.  There is something for everyone, and many homebuilders spend most of their time gaining and refining the skills they will need for the next portion of their aircraft projects back at their home chapters.  Here is a small sample of the forums and workshops we visited:
