World-renowned air show performer Patty Wagstaff has confirmed to AVweb that "an incident" involving her took place on a runway at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh late Thursday night and that police and security officials are now reviewing the chain of events. "All I can say is that I was in a place that I shouldn't have been and an incident took place," she told AVweb. She said that under the advice of legal counsel, she can't comment further and that the circumstances of the incident are "under review."
EAA spokesman Dick Knapinski confirmed to AVweb that the incident took place. "My understanding is that they were coming from the Gathering of Eagles [EAA's gala dinner] and were heading back to their hotel when they stopped to check an airplane," Knapinski said. "They ended up in a location where they weren't supposed to be."
