I'm just wondering, do most of European pilots here sincerly hope they can continue safely sit at home (or down route) for a another week or two, and still get paid?

Do reality check: no flights on Monday, most of you on the street by the end of the week latest. Throw a CV to the nearest McDonalds - I've heard they hiring on first came first served basis.

Does anybody know if Wright Bros had scientifically sound data, appropriate testing and insurance coverage for their flight in 1903? Or they were sitting on their arses comfortably, awaiting paycheck and permit to fly?
