When EAA AirVenture wraps up this weekend, it’s going to be a very busy time in the air traffic control tower.
Oshkosh is home to the busiest airport in the world during the fly-in, and a lot of pilots will be heading home.
Jim Ullman is the director of safety and technology for the National Air Traffic Controllers Association. He says the weather could be dicey this weekend, and if bad storms roll in, it’s going to be interesting.
Ullman calls working in the tower during AirVenture “insane.” He says they can have four planes landing on the runway at the same time. He says one of them could be a small private plane, and it might be followed by a military jet.
