mirror !

Folks, lets for a second look at the other side of the coin , How many captains over 40 do you know that are overweight or obese and live a sedentary lifestyle ? TOO many ! how many female pilots do you know who are obese/overweight ? Clearly, the women are doing a much better job with their health. Obesity leads to problems with your ability to handle the various stress and fatigue inducing problems in aviation and so you all better look at the mirror FIRST before pointing the finger in every other direction ( Hint: try getting into shape and USING your noggen in IMPROVING ways to avoid fatigue, etc ! During your 15-18 days off a month !!!)
