Regarding “COVID 19 Batters Aviation: Overreaction?”
The most significant statement I read by the author was: " There’s simply no reliable data by which to make a risk assessment. "
There are many issues associated c this malaise and until data can be obtained via testing, many of those who don’t take this seriously may have second thoughts. The US has been lacking in consistent leadership; one that first reflected denial, and now decisions by committee that slow down an effective and efficient response.
Pilots training emphasizes situational awareness and risk assessment. I suggest we do just that.
