Congratulations to all our 2024 Pilots, Relatives and Friends! The 2024 Mass Arrival was fantastic. Cessnas 2 Oshkosh put on a real show. The mass arrival flight was flawless from the technical point of view and it was the most fun we've had in recent years. The celebration at Cessna Base Camp was a blast, the camaraderie among all our pilots relatives and friends was quite apparent, the friendships solidified, and we were very happy for it.
Our event this year brought sixty-four (64) aircraft in the main mass arrival flight. The lead aircraft launched from Dodge County Airport in Juneau, Wisconsin at 16:01 and landed in Oshkosh at 16:37 CDT. The tail aircraft landed in Oshkosh at 16:50 CDT. The time on runways 36L and 36R of the Cessna Flight was exactly 14 minutes. Congratulations to each and every PIC/Owner who made the extra effort to train for this flight, flew hundred of miles to make it to Juneau on time, and flawlessly flew our 2024 Cessnas 2 Oshkosh Mass Arrival!
2024 Final Report

We are excited to report that sixty-four (64) aircraft actually participated in the 2024 Cessnas 2 Oshkosh Mass Arrival Flight. Seventeen (17) of the sixty-four (64) PIC flew our mass arrival for the first time in 2024. Our sixty-four (64) PIC brought with them forty-six (46) passengers over the age of twelve (12) years and four (4) children under 12 years of age. We warmly welcome the new pilots and their passengers to our group and wish all of our pilots, relatives and friends the most fun during our week of celebration at Cessna Base Camp and AirVenture. Thirty-six (36) pilots withdrew from participation for different personal, family, work-related and mechanical or technical reasons. We missed them and hope that they will join us next year.
Twenty-five (25) states and three (3) Canadian provinces were represented. Texas led the states with twelve (12) aircraft, followed by Virginia with seven (7), and Massachusetts with five (5). The Canadian province of Ontario sent three (3) aircraft and Alberta and Nova Scotia sent one (1) aircraft each.
The Cardinal (C177) led the models with twenty-two (22) aircraft, followed by the Skylane (C182) with nineteen (19), the Skyhawk (C172) with twelve (12), and the Centurion with six (6).
Thirty-seven (37) were aircraft with fixed landing gear and twenty-seven (27) were equipped with retractable landing gear.
Needless to say, we are very happy with these results and want to express our heartfelt gratitude to all of our pilots, relatives and friends for their support.
