He mentioned that back then, any pretty weekend day, there was always 2-3
aircraft puttering around the strip, shooting landings or just enjoying.
While the number of aircraft hangered there was about the same (20-30),
the strip was pretty much dead by comparison. There was 2-3 guys in their
hangers working on their planes, there was not the sound of a single
engine.

My wife and I still fly a couple of times per week, and that's true
everywhere we go now. Places we used to always see/hear airplanes are
eerily quiet now.

It's weird -- supposedly Cirrus is selling all these new airplanes, but I
sure don't know where in hell they are flying. We flew to Florida and back
two weeks ago, and rarely saw/heard anything smaller than a King Air.
