EAA President Jack Pelton stated the basis for his decision to cancel AirVenture Oshkosh 2020:
"As your leader, I see no clear path to meet our own requirements to insure the health and safety expectations our organization demands for our employees, members, volunteers, exhibitors and attendees. That includes sanitization, separation and personal protection requirements.
My conclusion is, like in any good flight planning, don’t take the risk. Therefore, I have no choice but to cancel AirVenture 2020" (Pelton, 2020).
There is no need to assume anything about his decision. Mr. Pelton provided reasons supporting his decision, which are objectively based on science and fact. I invite you to review his decision on the EAA website.
Further protestation despite evidence to the contrary points to bias beyond the reach of reason.
