Just as a side note---I am guessing this is a "life insurance" policy---not an aviation policy.
And yes we are back to the same argument again. Maybe we should wear nomex helmets while driving our motor vehicles. Think how safe you would be when someone slams into you.

Yep---I am one who wore flip-flops, shorts and aloha shirt while flying in Hawaii for 7 years. (I would actually fly bare foot--the flip-flops got in the way and really just protected my feet from the hot tarmac). Feel free to do an NTSB search of ALL Hawaii helicopter deaths and tell me if ANY of them could have been saved by nomex and helmets........
Again, it comes down to personal preference. Flying fires now, I wear them both.
