Picture of the Day: Bet you didn’t see this at Oshkosh
Ted Luebbers submitted this photo and note: “I bet you did not see one of these at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2022. It’s a sailplane glider that John Domenjoz designed in the 1930s that’s on display at the Owls Head Transportation Museum in Maine. He claims to have flown it at least 10 times. The boat-type sail would keep him aloft and provide the necessary drive for takeoff.”

For the last 15 years, women have come together at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh for WomenVenture, which gives women in aviation a place to network at the annual show. One of the highlights each year is the annual group photo. In 2022, more than 1,000 women gathered in Boeing Plaza for the group photo, according to officials with Women in Aviation. The backdrop for the group photo was the Boeing 777-200ER ecodemonstrator. (Photo by Christopher Miller)
