As far as testing is concerned, how do you use the data? Do you isolate those who possibly test positive but show no symptoms? You look at the lawsuits now, it would turn into a complete armed insurrection if you did that. We’re not talking the military here. And what about HIPPA privacy rules. If isolation becomes the “solution” no one in their right mind would waive those rights nor should they.
My company is doing everything it can to avoid positioning crews via airlines. Not looking forward to any airlining myself and will volunteer to drive even 8 hours if it works with the schedule. Fortunately business is really picking up for us especially the pt135 charters. I think those persons with the means to pay the higher cost are going to turn more and more to charter operators to avoid the increasing airline hassle. Others will just drive if the hassle going through the airline process gets longer.
