Scared me. I thought you'd found out it was down 20% since *last year.*
I think it IS down 20% this year from last year.
Another example: Mary and I just returned from an afternoon flight
(today is our "Sunday" -- we take Wed/Thu off each week, and work on
"real" weekends) to a nearby airport restaurant.
We were the ONLY airplane flying, at either airport. I heard a couple
of planes at distant airports on 122.8 -- but that's it.
Now the weather wasn't predicted to be ideal today (although it turned
out to be beautiful), so that might have kept a few on the ground --
but this "Lone Ranger of the Sky" thing has become an all-to-familar
experience for us lately.
Spooky...
