No goatees? That's nonsense! As long as kept trim, they look very professional! What about all of the CEO's that have them? This needs to be updated with the times (since pay doesn't seem to keep up).

Negative thats simulator pilot thinking. Its because of the puritanical idiots who are in charge of personal grooming and fashion. Outside the US many crewmembers have full beards, and goatees. A Scott mask is a Scott mask does not make a hill of beans what country or airline its located.

There used to be an advisory circular that gave numbers of oxygen/pressure loss with the use of masks and beards. It's probably waaaay outdated, but survives to haunt geeks like me that research such things.
