Good answer Marc. That is the way we interpreted it also. Soaring is like running, swimming and any other outdoor activity that can use social distancing to keep people safe. But if you share aircraft, like in a partnership, everyone needs to throughly wipe down the ship so all surfaces you touched are cleaned. You can mitigate this by wearing gloves when you pull out and stage ships. If it’s your own ship, that eliminates every issue except hook up. I wear gloves for that and remove them before getting in cockpit. Please stay away from the office and hanging around the tow pilot. Pay your bill over the phone. Thank you for everyone’s patience, we will be back training when it is safe to do so. 😀👍


If done sedulously that takes care of contact transmission but you still have to maintain strict person to person physical distancing. The evidence as regards aerosol (as distinct from droplet) spread is all heading in the one direction and it isn't for the better.
