Embolisms
I have heard and read a lot of hipe about passengers suffering from embolisms due to long flights. However, surely this risk extends to pilots aswell. I have heard that you should take an asprin before flying for a long preiod of time as a passenger but would this be a good idea as a pilot to, or does it have a side affect that the CAA wouldn't like? If not what else can one do as a pilot to lessen the risk of embolisms?
