Every year during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, around eighty volunteers come together to operate one of the show's most iconic attractions: the EAA Bell 47 Helicopter Experience.
In this video, you'll meet some of the amazing volunteers who make it all happen, take a ride aboard the legendary Bell 47 helicopter, and enjoy spectacular aerial views of AirVenture that few visitors ever get to see.
From Boeing Plaza and the flightline to the famous control tower, to Camp Scholler and to endless rows of aircraft, this is one of the most unique ways to experience the world's greatest aviation celebration.
