When FO has flying leg, CA must now quickly sanitize throttles with pre-staged Clorox wipe at V1 before FO touches throttles. If engine fails just after V1 before throttles can be sanitized, either pilot calls “corona failure” to emphasize that in the event of subsequent hull loss, the cause of death for all souls on board should be listed as Covid19.
You don’t even want to hear my new rapid D procedure😜
Seriously, where does this end? If one pilot has it, the other will likely get it. Growing body of actual data detailing the percentage of asymptomatic infections in the population suggests it is widespread but has a lower fatality rate than feared (back towards “its the flu,” but a New/different strain).
Should we have the CA fly every leg or every takeoff to above 2500’ until the throttles can be wiped down with 70% alcohol (now 60% unless you only have a sanicom)? I just don’t think the masks matter...or the temperature checks. Makes some feel better I guess.
