Make your plans now to attend the world's greatest aviation event and be sure to include a visit to the
ABS hospitality tent in your itinerary! 2007 marks the 40th anniversary of the American Bonanza Society.
Stop by the tent with fellow ABS members as you enjoy complimentary cold drinks and popcorn.
Below are some suggestions to help make your visit to AirVenture 2007 Oshkosh rewarding.

  • Check the schedule for ABS "Tent Topics" - informal discussions with Beech experts. Keep watching for updates and changes in schedules as they are confirmed.

  • If you have friends who don't belong to ABS, bring them by the ABS tent to sign up for a free year's membership compliments of O'Halloran Aviation. Five memberships drawn Friday, July 27 at the tent. Read more.

  • Don't miss the EAA seminars presented by the ABS Technical Staff, BPPP, Inc. and ABS Manager of Technical Services, Tom Turner.

  • The Annual ABS "Air-conditioned Backyard Bar-B-Q" on Tuesday is sold out. Check with Peggy at the tent to see if there are any cancellations (there are always a few.)
