Default Pilots and metal detectors

I’ve got more metal in my back than 99.99% of the non-flying (and flying!) population, I’ll wager.
Short answer: no
Longer answer: nope
Good luck, PM me if you have questions.

I have a card stating I have medal in my back, just wanting to hear from current pilots. Thank you!
