SIMPLIFIED FISK VFR Arrival to OSH -
Rwy 09 and 36

( For FSX Flight Simulation use only )

Approach to Ripon

• Proceed to Ripon, WI.
Recommended northbound altitudes are 2,000’ or 3,000’ MSL; southbound 2,500’ or 3,500’ MSL.

• Ensure your lights are on within 30 miles of Oshkosh.

• Plan your approach to arrive at Ripon at an arrival altitude.
Maintain 1,800’ MSL and 90 knots (or maximum cruise speed if less than 90 knots).
If unable, maintain 2,300’ MSL and 135 knots.

• Monitor approach (120.70) at least 20 miles from Ripon. VFR holding may be necessary due to congestion at Oshkosh. Fisk controllers will advise when holding is in progress. Ripon to Fisk

• If holding is not in progress, proceed northeast from Ripon directly over the railroad tracks toward Fisk. Maintain single file with other aircraft at your altitude.

• Listen for controller instructions as you approach Fisk. When holding is not needed at Fisk, the controller will assign your approach path beyond Fisk and your Oshkosh Tower frequency (118.50 or 126.60). This will normally occur in the immediate vicinity of Fisk. Do not proceed past Fisk without ATC authorization. When Holding is Needed: Holding Prior to Ripon

• If holding is in progress, depart Ripon westbound as shown below and enter the hold around Green Lake at 1,800’ or 2,300’ MSL.

• Fisk controllers will advise when to return to Ripon and continue inbound toward Fisk. When ATC ends holding at Green Lake, proceed in the hold to the eastern corner of Green Lake, then directly to Ripon and as specified in the “Ripon to Fisk” section at left.

• If the Green Lake holding pattern appears to be nearing capacity, stay clear and proceed no further. Instead, make left turns over a point on the ground and continue to hold until ATC advises you to proceed. Holding at Fisk

• If holding is needed at Fisk, the Rush Lake holding pattern will be used. Aircraft will proceed to Fisk and then turn left to heading 270º to the north shore of Rush Lake, continuing with left turns around the lake, then proceeding northeast over the railroad tracks to Fisk as depicted at right. Aircraft will fly single file at the specified approach speeds and altitudes.
Maintain ½ mile in-trail separation.
