Why the hell do you keep posting off topic stuff to the flying newsgroups?
Lord, it is like you are in your own world.

I suspect there will be an additional entry in my filter soon.

Over 1/3 of my son's middle school went home (or called in) sick
yesterday.
It's all over the news that this is the worst flu outbreak since the
killer
1918-1919 flu epidemic. (Which, incidentally, claimed my grandfather, and
very nearly killed my grandmother, while she was pregnant with my Dad.)

My CFI buddy said that half of his students cancelled lessons in the last
few days, and there was only one other person in the pattern with us
yesterday, on a CAVU afternoon. (Of course, the icy runways may have had
*something* to do with it!)

How's it in your neck of the woods? Anyone ever been hit with the flu (or
similar) while airborne?
