TomParsons Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 1. "RE: Oshkosh Fly-In replay w/Patty i..." 09-05-02, 20:26z  Ben- I saw the Oshkosh show on Speed. Actually, they had two shows: a half-hour teaser during Oshkosh (in mid-week), and the (I think) two hour program after AirVenture was finished. I've been doing a lot of wailing and teeth-gnashing since Speed was taken over. Back when it was SpeedVision, they used to have a decent amount of good aviation programming- Civil Air, AirShow, Sport Aviation, Bush Pilot, and more. Now the only aviation coverage we get is this annual Oshkosh wrap-up. So beggars can't be choosers when it comes to aviation coverage on Speed. That said, I liked the program, except for one thing. The sound mix was so horribly terribly crappy that I couldn't hear the narration! It was almost completely drowned out by the "background" music. I'm embarrassed and humiliated to say that I can't remember whether there was a Patty Wagstaff interview during the program (sorry, Patty)! If they did interview her, I'm pretty sure she was unintelligible, due to the aforementioned bad sound mix. Besides, her CNN interview was probably better anyway! Tom P.
