Radgirl,
Not sure why this is on Rotorheads as it effects all pilots.
The simple answer is we here in Rotorheads are a very separate and distinctly different segment of the Aviaton Industry wit large.
As we are a much smaller segment and in many cases due to the transient nature of the business and working environment quite a lot us know personally, or know of, so many others.
That and we all hail from a great many different Countries around this targe green and blue Orb we dwell upon.
Bluntly put....it is here because it allows helicopter pilots to discuss something that directly affects helicopter pilots.
What. you think about Covid and what relates to Helicopter Pilots is welcome.....but as to the presence of this discussion here and not elsewhere your opinion matters not.
