Slosh Kosh 2026, Aviation And Camping Event

 

The Slosh Kosh is taking place in Second Life.  It could be described as part camping event and part air show. It's taking place over four sims, Rhodium, Osmium, Iridium, and Platinum. It started on the ninth, and is going on to Sunday October 18

 

I was told about the event through someone in the "Drivers of SL" group, and talking to someone else was informed most of the campers came through that group, which organized it with the SL Aviation Network. This is the second year the event has taken place, and is apparently based on the real-life annual air show and gathering at two airports near Oshkosh Wisconsin, organized by a group of aviation fans. 

 

To my knowledge, there are still a few camping spots, "each camper gets 120LI for their campsite," and setting up is free. There are some rules to follow, two of the sims having additional restrictions, so read them before setting up.  

 

There are a few places people have set up vehicle stores. One is offering a free "speeder." It is at Iridium (212/214/121). There are air show events by squadrons, on Friday October 16, Saturday October 17, and Sunday October 18 (and some practice hours before these), with Sunday being the most active day. For music fans, there are DJ events. One can find a schedule HUD for both at the music stage. And besides the flying, watching air shows, and being at the music parties, one can just hang out at the camps with friends and airplane fans. 

 

Once again, the event is taking place until Sunday October 18.
