It's first-come, first-serve, so if it's busy, take a walk, go look at some airplanes, and come back later. It's very informal, someone will glance at your resume, (just to screen out the dreamers), and then suggest who you should wait for. (Probably the shortest line.) If you like, you can try to talk to all of them. (A couple of base chief pilots and an HR person or two, if I remember correctly.)

What to bring? Not much, all they wanted last time was a resume, not even a cover letter. They'll make annotations on it as they chat with you, and when they're finished, put it in their pile. So I'd bring few of those and maybe a couple of cover letters just in case. (And as spares for that massive coffee spill).

Whatever you do, do not wear a suit, you'll look like a fool. Remember, it's an airshow, we're all there to have fun. (And it gets pretty hot & muggy some years.) Think office casual: dockers and a nice button-down shirt are just fine.
Just be relaxed, they just want to get a feel for you. HR will do the scrutinizing back in Seattle.

There is air service into Appleton, Milwaukee and (duh), Chicago.
Good luck, and have a fun time. It's a great atmosphere to meet them in.
