Oh, and just forget about also those times you checked the gas in a 152 by sticking your hand in the tank. At least that’s what they taught in 1989.
Plus we have special shielding on the 190 that protects us against radiation. Kidding! We’re getting fried like every other aircraft.
Besides we’re all crazy on the 190 anyway. Come on over.

And I spent 4 years as a USAF firefighter paramedic so I’m sorta on the know on fumes and stuff that burns and vaporizes. That pesky federal firefighter I designation and all. But thanks for judging.

And lifestyle choices are different than unhealthy cabin air in a place of employment. I hope if you ever go to mainline you volunteer for the post-fume-event runups and ferry flights.
