    It's not limited to Wisconsin. I've got events scheduled this summer (and even as far out as the end of October) that had to be cancelled or postponed. There's more to these events than just the attendees showing up.
    As RonW points out, there's lots of preshow stuff that relies heavily on volunteers. If you don't get the volunteers, it matters not what the EAA or the governor says. EAA held off the decision longer than many groups did.
    They had their line in the sand as to when they had to be able to make the decision and when the third week in May or whenever it was rolled around, there was no prognosis that things could be held safely and without being a financial disaster.
    It had to be called.

    Thought they had gone overboard on this virus thing
    Well--I've had one really good friend down with it for a month--getting better thank God
    I can give you the phone number of the widows of two of my other friends that caught it and died--you can tell them that this whole thing is a joke.
    This just isn't the flu EAA did the right thing

    If you look at his past postings, he doesn't look like a troll. Mostly comments on Airventure issues over several years.

    I found this comment by him amusing, considering:
