Wow. It sounds like all of the money to the event comes from gate admissions, parking and concessions. Too bad.

If everything like this is canceling, how does the NFL or NBA have a season? Sounds like publicity rather than actual planning.

I drove past Wittman Field in Oshkosh last week and thought about the cancellation of the Airventure fly-in. You think of subtracting that much money from the local economy - it is staggering. Just like the cancellation of Summerfest in Milwaukee, it has to be a total punch in the gut to the microeconomies driven by those events. We need to consider managing this pandemic, in the absence of a vaccine for the next 14-16 months - to speed the arrival of a “herd immunity” while protecting the unusually susceptible populations.
