The geographical center of the lower 48 states is Lebanon, KS, and the0 weighted population center of the U.S. is near Edgar Springs, MO. Kansas0 City is about half way between these two towns, so I'll second that. 0 (how's that for logic?)

I'd vote for Wichita. Quite central and0 lots of airplane factories.

Not that I'd say No to this myself, because0the0 place looks nice, but
for a larger fly-in I was thinking something more0 centralized than
Ohio....so that we'd get more of the gang from California,0 Vegas,
Oregon, Utah, and such places. Ohio is just a little too0 shifted
East for what I was thinking...but for me personally it works0 great.
Anyone have any other ideas? Eventually we'll settle on0 something,
but the most important part in my mind is getting as big a0 turnout
as possible for a weekend event.....something that wouldn't0 require
a long weekend to do.

That probably would have been0 pertinent information. It is in Sandusky,
Ohio, at the Western side of0 the state. KSKY is the identifier and if
you go to google and look at0 the satellite images you can see the huge
roller coasters, three of0 them over 200 feet in the air. Website is

I vote for Kansas, smack in the middle of the country. Mostly for those of us living at the edges of the map. I will however try and come to whatever location is selected.

I worked there when I was 18. Great place. Easy flight for me - only 30 minutes from Detroit by air.

My home airport in K34 in Gardner Kansas, and we have excellent BBQ at K81 just 10 minutes away. We are just 40 minutes drive south west on I35 of Kansas City. The only problem with this locataion is it is about 1 hour drive to Worlds of fun, but these two airports are very GA friendly and you can pop a tent at K34 for sure.
Thank You

I agree, the only reason I suggested the location was to give an example
of a big draw place, that had allot of amenities, and fun for the
families to entice people. I also looked at the map that was put
together for those that were on the Osh Kosh list. When I went back out
to Frapper, where I should have gone in the first place, it looks like
the TN/ KY border is central to the 200 hits on the map, but what is
there to draw the pilots and families? Maybe as suggested an east/west
alternating years, or ??
I personally do not care where it is, I am more interested in meeting
the RV10 builders, and will attend where ever it is decided on.
My point was, I think it is a great idea, and I will support the effort,
no matter where, I was just throwing out an idea, that would have draw
for families. For that matter, rat world on either coast is a huge draw
as well, but they do not have an airport within walking distance.
Just my .02 as usual

Agreed, I get one airplane show a year, maybe two, but to ask the family
to go to another airplane event would be difficult. But if I say lets go
to an amusement park or whatever I can sell as fun for them, then I can
go, the wives and kids can get together while we talk airplanes.
