Own a vintage Bonanza?

Pilots who own a vintage Bonanza have received a special invitation to this year’s EAA AirVenture Oshkosh.

That’s because the Vintage Aircraft Association and the American Bonanza Society have joined forces to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Bonanza in 2022.

If you own a Bonanza of any type that was built before 1970, you can register for the big show at [email protected]. Send your name, your city and state, and your email address. By registering, you’ll get updates on all Bonanza special events at Oshkosh this summer.

Pre-registrations are already approaching 100 vintage Bonanzas, which will be a great addition to the traditional Bonanzas to Oshkosh mass arrival prior to AirVenture week, according to EAA officials.

Forums and other events will be hosted by the American Bonanza Society in its tent just north of Theater in the Woods on the AirVenture grounds.

The 2022 AirVenture is July 25-31 at Wittman Regional Airport (KOSH).

In addition, VAA is already stocking special Bonanza 75th anniversary merchandise to commemorate the special occasion.
