Thanks for the info. GB. But what I'd like to see is the actual data, ie. how many pilots are getting brain cancer, when (at what age), and is that number higher or lower than the general population, as a percentage of all actively flying Comercial and Military Pilots, and then figure out why, unless the ratio is exactly the same as the general, non-flying, public.

I'm not so worried about the 'cosmic' radiation from the sun, although it can't be good for you, but I am more worried about the electronic stuff we are exposed to on the flight deck, all day and all night. Like wearing a headset all day. Is that the same as having a cell phone in your ear all day? Probably not, but it can't be good for your brain cells!

Is there some evidence that cell phones are causing an increase in brain cancer in the general population? Why? Radio and eltronic waves near your ear? Well, what about all the electronics in the typical airline cockpit? Is that good for you?
