Trentino,

Why do you find it interesting that about 1325 people viewed this topic, making it one of the most viewed topics on the medical and health forum at the moment, and with only 15 replies?

Because it's VERY VERY COMMON, that's why!!!!

And why only 15 replies? - Because most people won't admit to it, we're all supposed to be macho Chuck Yeager types, aren't we?

I have observed it in numerous other pilots, typically at the Senior First Officer / Junior Captain stage, and, oh yes, within myself at the stages described.

I have also observed that for these same pilots, and myself, that it eventually went away in it's own good time, every time.

Nowadays, I look forward to a few anxiety creating situations to arouse my levels of alertness to normal.

Keep on keeping on,

Old Smokey
