#1 I'm waiting for the first air pilot or crew who refuses to fly
That is already the case for medical evacuations from the Hot Zone. Getting hard to find flight crews willing to go there.

#3 Son in Law, is a right seat Flt Officer for United, out of SFO. His routes are Northern CONUS and Canada They are not happy campers. The pilots can close the cabin door, but worry the Flt Attendants will strike, call in sick or just quit. No Stews no flts.

#4 I remember back during Desert Storm when the CRAF crews were issued "protective clothing" before heading downrange. Of course the loadmasters popped the seals to inspect them. Turns out they'd purchased clear painters overgarments with venilation holes at the armpits. Go team Evergreen! Needless to say the crews were not impressed. Still, they operated the trips with no more than the usual amount of complaining. of course they were freight dogs, not the delicate blossoms the operate commercial pax birds . . .
