I just wish that those who obviously have them would please share the magic mushrooms with the rest of us.
Is EAA really taking pro-active steps or in reality are they merely following state/federal mandates? If and when the decision is made to permit such an event, EAA thru no fault of their own, has absolutely no idea how the event will have to be restructured because those policies haven’t been developed and released. No one is simply going to throw a magic switch and we’re going to take right back up as if nothing happened. When the economy is started back up its going to happen in phases and we can expect major changes. Local, state and federal government is still in the crisis reaction mode. Few, if any, are talking about recovery and beyond. Even if given the green light; what will AV look like?
Just a few what if’s:
1. What if there is a limit to the number of people that can be put on to a shuttle bus or even CHICAGORANDY’s beloved trams. In Green Bay they are currently limiting public transit buses to a maximum of 6 person on board.
2. How is EAA going to deal with the long admission lines and other areas with social distancing still in effect? Someone has to work out a new layouts.
3. What if the food courts and cafes are impacted by new seating and occupancy requirements.
4. What if restroom cleaning and occupancy requirements change.
5. What if exhibit buildings, forum tents, workshops, the Hangar Store, interview circles, etc have occupancy limits imposed.
EAA doesn’t know simply because these requirements haven’t been developed. Without the policies in place, there is simply no way for EAA to plan and make the necessary adjustments. All the above could mean more assets and services to be acquired, more personnel, new policies to be developed. I’m not sure that EAA is going to have the ability or time to react in time to pull off AV in the face of a paradigm shift in public gathering policies.

At 73, I'm not afraid to go to the doctor if I think something is wrong with me. In December, 2019, after several days of feeling like crap, I went to my doctor and they did the swab test and it was positive for the flu. It lasted about two weeks. Mid to late January, 2020, I developed the worse cough I've ever had, it was constant but not really coughing up anything and it lasted a couple of weeks also. Doctor visit again and got prescription cough meds because OTC just wasn't cutting it. Was it Covid 19? Don't know, don't care, I got over it.
Bob, if it doesn't kill you, it will make you stronger, or not !
My mantra has always been, "What doesn't kill you 'doesn't' really make you stronger, it just weakens you for the next time around when it just might finish what it started."

Robert , what "vacine" do you think someone , the govt is trying to force you to take? There is not a vaccine , yet for this virus. And flu vaccine is voluntary, no one forces you to take it,
P S. My friend had homeowners insurance, but still had a total loss fire. Should she not renew the insurance?
PS n0 2 they are a medical family her brother is a top doctor at Medical center in Houston and they all get flu shots.
