As we go through this pandemic, everyone please at least do the basics and get rest, eat well and perhaps use any time off to "smell the roses" so to speak. And protect any family and friends at high risk.

Let's all stick together through this.

Also, it won't hurt to make sure you have enough vitamin A, B, C, D, E, and Zinc. Tea is great in helping boost the immune system too.

Yes, I agree! Also, all passengers temps are being screened prior to boarding any A2A flights. Can’t be too safe!

Apart from keeping away from crowds and keeping the hands washed:

Set aside as much time as possible to do good and wholesome stuff: flightsimming, reading, making/listening to music, going for a walk (in nature, preferably - with fewer people around), talking to friends and family.

Avoid staring at pandemic-statistics and spending too much time worrying. While keeping the body healthy is important, it is also good to stay human and keep sanity in place. Delve into those hobbies, and be a nerd. That helps! :-D

However it is possible to fly into Corona.

Yesterday I flew from KSBP (San Luis Obispo) to KAJO (Corona Municipal) in southern California. And today I flew from Corona to KVCV Victorville. So I've had my share of Corona... :-P

Exactly. Thinking of the positive side of all this, in the gym there are almost only familiar faces to run into nowadays. It is refreshingly quiet at the office as well, most working remote. Plus, most importantly, people have not yet started hoarding beer, so stocks at the local markets seem fine.

Hi Lewis.
If you want adrenalin , try flying A2A accu-simed b17`s in formation , with pucker module engaged, flying into flak , knowing you could be taken down or suffer unknown issues , ontop of A2A ware an tare or failures , as the sky fills with flak , sometimes so thick you have difficulty seeing the other aircraft , all while trying to drop your bombs on target , and then wondering if you can make it back to base or not .

How about support flights for our members who do get infected as another suggestion (it will happen in the future to a unfortunate group of our forum members and hopefully they will recover and be back in a few weeks). What's worse if we do lose a forum member(s) sadly to this pandemic.They should get honor remembrance flights or something of that nature.
