The pilot of N4301R:
Not only did he cut off aircraft in the conga line to fly into Oshkosh, his exit from Air Venture was much more memorable.
On the way in he completely messed up the procedure.
Leaving, he did even worse.
He then took off from a taxiway in the wrong direction against landing traffic. The picture above is from a clip online of his departure from the taxiway.
That's very much really not a good series of incidents. At all.
Thankfully, even with his horrible situational awareness and failure to follow the proper procedures, no one got hurt.
Oshkosh becomes the busiest airport in the world during EAA Air Venture, and you need to be on the top of your game flying there.
If you're not, you really need to land at a nearby, and far less busy, airport and take a shuttle to the show.
Everybody makes mistakes, but you can't keep making a series of them like that, as well as reject ATC instructions, especially not at the world's busiest airport.
