    This is a interesting chart.
    The Texas Medical Association COVID-19 Task Force and Committee on Infectious Diseases
    have created a chart that ranks activities on their risk level for COVID-19.

    Chart in PDF version

    Going to a bar is ranked at a HIGH RISK
    Camping is ranked LOW RISK

    Interesting to speculate where Airventure would fall. When you consider the crowds, lines, busses, trams, forums, evening programs, etc, it probably qualifies as "Going to an amusement park" (Moderate-High Risk, Level 8) or "Attending a large music concert" (High Risk, level 9).

    Of course, the large music concert is over in a few hours...not a whole week, like AV.

    And concert attendees don't use community showers or do a bunch of other things folks at Oshkosh do.

    EAA made the right decision.

    And then there is traveling by plane: moderate to high risk.

    all depends on the pilot.

    and the other ones around you one Fisk arrival.

    I think they're talking about airliners. Flying solo (or with family members) is as low risk (corona wise) as they come.

    Pretty sure he was making a joke there.

    Yesterday morning a flight of 3 Cherokees flew overhead. A quick drive over to the airport in the afternoon confirmed that the Cherokee owners association has started to gather, albeit in smaller numbers. They have been coming to KCPZ ever since SploshKosh. Word is they plan a “mass” arrival to OSH and then head home at the end of the week.

    Well, they tower is likely going to turn them away. The "mass arrivals" are based on a specific FAA waiver which almost certainly is going to be rescinded (if it ever was offered).

    Negative, Ghostrider. The pattern is full.
