A newly hired American Airlines regional jet pilot collapsed just after takeoff in Chicago on Saturday night
He could not be revived. Cause of death unknown; American will not disclose any details, including his vaccination status. The co-pilot took over and averted catastrophe.
SO the WHO wants to ban all the unvaxed from travel. Is GOD trying to protect us in the short term until we WIN. And win we will.
Newly hired means he should have recently had a physical and all, doesn't it? Possibly a new jab or booster? They should have caught any normal issues.
The pilot died, and public FAA records state his medical was done in Sept. Unknown if an EKG was part of it but that is the normal procedure for someone his age.
Newly hired on a regional wing of the airline also likely means he was a younger man. And we know the Florida Surgeon General said clot shots are a no-no for young men under 39.
I don't know exactly how many of these stories about pilots dying midflight that we've seen? Or maybe airline pilots dying midflight stories just stand out, but it makes me very leery about flying.
