Clearly by my new name you could narrow me down to about 4000 people. Hopefully that satisfies whether I'm qualified to talk on the board or not.
... Now do you see how stupid you sound? We don't need 13,000 pilots doing 13,000 different things, thanks.

Also, the checklist can cause infection and disease if you forget to wipe it down.

Not sure what the different states comment has to do with anything. Its the same virus everywhere.I am curious to know if students have had to stop training because of infection, or if instructors have been infected by students. Certainly the shorter training events expose instructors to more risk.

Lol on MN. As for different states, everyone has a different perspective on mask use based on their local requirements. It could cause tension or misunderstandings at a minimum.
As for delayed training and quarantines for students/instructors, yeah that seems to be happening to some extent from what I know.

You know exactly what I'm talking about. Most I know have deleted anything that associates them with UAL as the company goes after people for voicing opinions contrary to theirs on public issues on their own FB page. This excludes talking bad about your employer publicly. I get that. Though I disagree with that type of leadership. I was at the training center a little while back and there were 13k people doing 13k different things. Some wearing masks, some not.

I always giggle when I read this stuff.
You guys argue with the professional opinions/facts of people at the top of their field, because of political opinion, facebook science, perceived government control, keeping the man down or because the my pillow guy said so.
BUT....
We all know that if the M.D. with a PPL came to your cockpit and started telling you how to do your job, because Facebook, you'd blow an absolute gasket!
Change my mind.
