Rumor floating around that Air Traffic Controllers in hard hit areas of the country are getting a bonus of ten bucks an hour is they come into work rather than being sick sitting at home.........

With no one flying, the air traffic they normally handle is off by 95%.........

I bet the airports that handle massive Fedex and UPS haven't slowed down much........

Isn't there some airport down south, like in Atlanta? that has a constant massive flow of freight airplanes coming in an out night and day?????
