Wanna stop the masks? Develop one with a built in kazoo.

i fear we’re gonna still be wearing these things come peak.
Went to AOC a couple of days ago. I’d say 75% weren’t wearing masks. But I also noticed very few close groupings and no hand shakes. The vast majority kept their distance from others. Almost everyone wore a mask on the crew bus.

Just my observation based on one night. Seems like people are using a fair amount of common sense.

Nice pic of the recent capt's course grads. They couldn't take the masks off for a pic? It looks like a bunch of convicts. Common sense is gone.

How hard is it to wear a mask and help prevent a community spread within the pilot group. It certainly doesn’t hurt, and it most likely helps. I wear mine for you, and I appreciate you wearing yours for me.

Let’s see, we’re going on 5 months now......maybe 6 and I haven’t noticed ANY “community spread” WITHOUT masks there snowflake YGBSM.

I am sure a person could drive drunk for 5 months and it would likely work out, might not. I am sure you could fly through areas of heavy convective precipitation for 5 months and it would work out, till it didn’t. I just don’t see the logic in not taking some basic precautions for the sake of each other and our jobs. Apologies that I am so offensive.

My kids told me that New Balances were "old people" shoes. When did that happen? They are great quality and made in America, that's good enough for me.
