E.G. KOSH effectively ceases to exist during AirVenture, and "KOSH-SOUTH" and "KOSH-NORTH" or somesuch replaces it. ..given timed headers, Robin's apt850 could last 5 years with no change for KOSH, the AirVenture dates has been set for the next 5 years. -- ..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt... ;o) ...with a number of polar bear hunters in his ancestry...
