Flying Into the World's Busiest Airspace
Sacramento, CA
Mar 16, 2026
A cross-country flight into Oshkosh, Wisconsin — the world's busiest airspace, with over 10,000 planes.
One of the most intense flights of my life, essentially flying in formation with hundreds of planes for an hour.
The airport closed while we were about to land, so we had to hold while they reopened arrivals.
Good prep and radio communications were key.
