Good topic. I noticed during the interviews that there is an awareness. A recognition of the contagiousness of the covid-19 virus and its scope. But, as we rollon, it looks like we are getting sloppy. Maybe relaxing our guard just a bit too much. We have a population of over 330 million people in the US and the covid likes that. We have the largest flight training populous and the covid-19 likes that too. Social distancing seems to work, but it’s not possible during dual flight instruction or while on the ground in close quarters. Going into the cockpit is like having unprotected sex haphazardly. Not the smartest move a person can make.
Now, the disease spread continues, the US is surpassing 2 million infections and over 112,000 deaths. All in a very short period, about 4 months. Meanwhile, there is no vaccine, but there is a confusing prophylactic plan, and a highly politicized orientation. Herd immunization is not working. Is it time to resume dual flight training? I do not think so. At least not until the end of the year. Give science and the healthcare system some slack.
