As with the other gentleman, please feel free to demonstrate how European or Middle East O2 masks form a perfect seal over a beard that will not allow ANY toxic smoke to enter. It takes very little smoke to incapacitate a person, even trace amounts slipping through the porous seal between a bearded face and a mask are all that are needed.

I suppose it’s that time of year again to rehash the painfully obvious. The requirement to shave has nothing, zero, zip, nada, zilch to do with appearance. It has to do with the safety of your passengers, in a smoke event your mask had better have a good seal. As a former firefighter I would not want to put my life at risk for sake of having a “neatly trimmed beard”, as a pilot I refuse to gamble the lives in the back on it.

No they don’t, and when a pilot goes unconscious from smoke inhalation and slumps over the controls forcing an unrecoverable dive they will have to answer for why they chose to expose their pax to that risk. I suppose the grieving families will be comforted to hear that the pilot looked very handsome prior to the crash.

Now......do you REALLY think that Canadian and European and ME aviation authorities just woke up one day and decided to allow it?
Especially EASA is tightly regulated and I mean diamond in a goats @ss tightly regulated.
They’ve also dropped the O2 req above FL250 by the way...OH THE HORROR!!!!
And Diet Coke causes cancer according to the State of California.

Feel free at any time to post an actual response regarding facial seal during smoke events and how a bearded individual can seal well enough to keep the toxic smoke from entering. Any example of a professional fire department allowing their firefighters to enter a working fire with beards would also suffice.
I’ll hang up and listen to your response.

Congrats Einstein, you successfully ignored everything I said and knee jerked to your well rehearsed stock response. You will note that I never once mentioned a lack of oxygen delivery due to beards, what I clearly stated was the lack of seal in a smoke event.

You obviously didn’t read the study. They simulated smoke conditions.
