Forget Flying

By

A constant thread that I am picking up on is the talk about the resumption of flying and how that form of transport is going to change.

Most people are speculating that planes will be emptier because of the social distancing protocol.

BUT they are forgetting ONE IMPORTANT thing: On a plane we all share the air conditioning which has no concept of social distancing.

So, maybe a return to flying will be in a an open cockpit plane, with no oxygen or air conditioning and just short hops across Africa – How Romantic and exciting!

Codrington talks about the next 12 to 18 months and our reality.

One of his comments about air travel sparked my single lonely thought.
