What could go wrong?

People have asked the same thing about Deutsche Bank and Trump :man_shrugging:

Uhhhh, let me get this straight. Russia, the country that regularly launches its own people into space shoots down a satellite and makes a debris field that will threaten its own Kosmonauts for decades (centuries?) to come…

wut where they thinking, they have two of their own on the ISS right now…

Because we can’t have nice things.

The shortened it because:
The change is motivated by science demonstrating that the majority of SARS-CoV-2 transmission occurs early in the course of illness, generally in the 1-2 days prior to onset of symptoms and the 2-3 days after. Therefore, people who test positive should isolate for five days and, if asymptomatic at that time, they may leave isolation if they can continue to mask for five days to minimize the risk of infecting others."

Good luck Billy!

if you don’t want the click on the link – the rule change would allow a single pilot to fly some planes, rather than requiring a copilot.

Seems like a very bad idea.

For starters, there aren’t two pilots in the cockpit at all times: there’s two pilots on board at all times. One might be in the bathroom. The US requirement is one pilot and two people in the cockpit at all times. So if one pilot is in the restroom a flight attendant comes and sits in the other seat. Germanwings didn’t have this rule… if they had the plane likely would not have crashed. The flight attendant could have unlocked the door and let the other pilot in. But if the pilot in a single-pilot aircraft needs to use the bathroom and there’s a problem while he/she is in there then what?

There’s a myriad of examples of a pilot becoming incapacitated in flight, the article only mentions a few. And even if it’s only on cargo flights, those can still have consequences to those of us on the ground (see 9/11). In addition to the pilot himself/herself who might survive if the plane lands safely.

Also when there’s a problem is when it’s especially helpful to have a second set of eyes/ears/hands. Even a minor one.
