Sunrise crop duster on the way to Oshkosh.
On my drive to Oshkosh and AirVenture 2022, I was able to watch a crop duster early in the morning.
Was a very beautiful sunrise and a cool sight to see the airplane at work. Even more impressive in person.

EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (June 16, 2022) — The UAS4STEM competition for high school students is back for the second year at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2022. The Academy of Model Aeronautics event is for groups of students, ages from 11-17, who build an unmanned aircraft system (UAS) and compete against other teams to complete a specific mission through different obstacles.
“The competition allows kids to have the opportunity to create innovative technology while also developing valuable life lessons within the workforce,” said Kyle Jaracz, AMA’s Education Director. “It is always exciting to see what the kids envision and how they work as a team to develop and compete with an unmanned aircraft system.”

Teams in first, second and third place will receive Skydio products and scholarship awards funded by the AMA Foundation and Skydio.
