An idea. There are multiple pre-AirVenture fly-in events that take place just prior to AirVenture. Usually in the form of type club gatherings, etc. These types of events are smaller, and are likely possible, due to the existing tradition of planning, and because each of them are much smaller than AV, they can be nimble and flexible, as we emerge from this situation. Maybe even some of the corporate folks will host fly-ins, such as a Dynon Fly-in located in the Wisconsin area. What might happen is essentially a “diffusion” of AV, into many smaller events that can be planned, and delivered in a much more nimble manner. Then, we get the opportunity to fly around the area, visiting the dispersed events, and having a very different kind of AV experience. I will be watching for these types of events, and pick the one, two, three, or more that fits my interests the most. And if EAA is on top of this, they would be facilitating this type of “distributed planning”. As the OP said “Contingency Planning”. Let’s all hope we have AV this year, but plan for other possibilities. Just an idea.
