the annual air show back in 2021, after canceling in 2020 due to COVID.

The Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) provided an update to its members last week regarding plans for their annual AirVenture air show in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.

“We are in full preparation mode for this year’s fly-in, but circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 situation have caused some additional safeguards and procedures to be part of that planning,” the association said in a Feb. 4 press release.

The annual event will feature some venue changes with an emphasis on physical distancing and reduced seating capacities.

"We will be hosting AirVenture 2021, but there will be areas that will look different and areas where we'll incorporate technology to limit touchpoints as we work with local and state health officials to establish and maintain the best possible standards for public events," Jack J. Pelton, EAA's CEO and Chairman said in a Feb. 4 press release. "Some areas may look different at Oshkosh this year, but the feeling will be the same as we gather to celebrate the world of flight."

AirVenture is scheduled to occur July 26-Aug. 1.
