Oshkosh, WI – July 10, 2023 – The Oshkosh Aviation Park will be on display at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2023, the world’s greatest fly-in convention. This joint project of the City of Oshkosh, Winnebago County, and Greater Oshkosh Economic Development Corporation aims to attract and grow the aviation and aerospace industry in the Oshkosh and Fox Valley region.
Oshkosh Aviation Park offers 80 acres of prime, certified Gold Shovel Ready land, with direct taxiway access to Wittman Regional Airport. This park benefits from the proximity to an International Trade Zone, Fox Valley Technical College S. J. Spanbauer Aviation & Industrial Center, and most notably, the EAA AirVenture event grounds.
Wittman Regional Airport capped off a historic three years of development in 2023 with many new improvements underway for 2024 and beyond. Following the completion of the new General Aviation (GA) terminal facility in 2021, the airport is constructing 20 new t-hangar units, with anticipated completion in early Fall 2023. In addition to our ongoing efforts of building out the Oshkosh Aviation Park, we are finalizing plans for a new project to redevelop the former commercial service terminal site. “Exciting developments are taking place at Wittman, making it an attractive destination for aviation businesses and marking the beginning of a new chapter for Oshkosh aviation,” said Jim Schell, Wittman Regional Airport Director. “OSH is fully committed to progress and is equipped for growth in the future.” With an excellent location, infrastructure, and business resources at hand, the Oshkosh Aviation Park is poised to attract top players in the industry for aviation-related activities.
The Oshkosh Aviation Park will have a booth at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2023, where visitors can learn more about the park’s features, incentives, and opportunities. The park’s representatives will also be available to answer questions and arrange site tours for interested parties. “We are excited to showcase the Oshkosh Aviation Park at EAA AirVenture, where we can connect with thousands of aviation enthusiasts and professionals from around the world,” said Tricia Rathermel, CEO of Greater Oshkosh EDC. “We believe that the Oshkosh Aviation Park is the ideal location for innovative, aviation-focused companies to make their permanent home and grow their business in a supportive and vibrant community.”
Make sure to visit the Oshkosh Aviation Park booth at Hangar C, Booth 3153. EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2023 takes place from July 24 – July 30 at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
