I enjoy reading Frank's entries here and his videos and look for new ones often. Whenever I have a crummy job to do on the plane I remind myself...

That reminds me of something I saw at Roberts International Airport, Monrovia, Liberia. The Ministry of health had a booth checking for Yellow Fever...

Reno’s biggest problem was lack of cash. Never been but I would think hey have plenty of room to space out spectators. Proof of having had the...

I heard the Reno Air Races are GO for this year. Just wondering out loud, will attendees be required to show either 1. proof of vaccination or 2....

Wonder if they will be doing temp checks as a requirement for entry????

Sun-N-Fun has been announced as "GO" for this year. Roger (from Belgium), no problem, just fly into Mexico and walk across the southern border - it...

Got any um.. excess doses? I'm thinking a guy could make big bucks with a booth in the flymart at SnF... Just sayin'. ;-)

Look we’re not going to change peoples minds here. Go—don’t go; Whichever choice makes sense for you. If it’s on I’m going. I went to OSH last...

I suspect the prevelence of so-called "co-morbidities" is higher in the Oshkosh attendance than the population as a whole. We already know we lost...

Maybe you and I see things differently. By the end of this thing (this fall, maybe?), something like 1 1/2 of every thousand Americans will die from...

I am wondering what measures will be taken at Camp Scholler, however. I really can't see 60 or so people using the showers or the washbasins at the...

Well, I'm sure I'll get bashed for this, but I hope the fly-in is held with as few restrictions as possible. You can't eradicate an airborne virus,...

I wonder what (conspiracy) theories people will come up with to explain away the excess death statistics:...

You're absolutely right. The vaccine mostly protects you from having moderate or worse symptoms. It isn't certain that it prevents you from...

Is the COVID-19 vaccine effective in protecting the people who get the vaccination or not? If those who get the vaccination are protected after the...

Good data, thanks. Is there an equivalent one for the 2009 H1N1 pandemic? I'd like to get confirmation that comorbidities are NOT included in the...

You said: CDC indicates that only 6% of the total (322k as 1/9/2021) were COVID-Only (19,000). I went and read your reference and.... it does NOT...

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm Just above table 3. Comorbidities section. Shows breakdown.

Got a reference for that? It's interesting, if accurate...

Jeff gave me an answer that made sense. AV apparently may have taken some precautions when a new sickness seemed to be going around. For the...

The only outbreak of similar lethality was the Spanish Flu over 100 years ago; EAA wasn't around then. The polio outbreaks in around 1955 come to...

I meant to say that my original post was not to discuss the sickness. Everyone has a different opinion. I was just asking did AV take precautions...

It's exactly the point. Reactions should be based on lethality, not on mere contagion rate. I'd expect organizations to react differently to...

Thanks Jeff. You are probably correct about that. I know around here in MN they took some preventative measures similar to that in restaurants and...

I don't recall the exact year, but some time around a decade ago they started to put in lots of hand sanitizer stations around the eat spots, in the...

Not going to get into your fatality number as that is suspect based on reporting, but that is not the point. The question was did AV do anything...

How many fatalities? Were they near 400,000? (hint: No.) Ron Wanttaja
