ECA Leaflet on COVID-19 Health & Safety Aspects
Dear fellow pilot,
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, many among us are still operating flights, be it as a skeleton service, rescue or cargo missions. Since so many authorities have published guidance to limit spreading of the virus – covering different areas in more detail – and some incorrect information is also out there, it may be difficult for flight crews to find relevant information for their specific task.
This leaflet is an attempt to address this issue by collecting official guidance regarding the coronavirus in a single paper. Referenced text is reproduced as-is. The hyperlinked references (e.g. [EASA]) provide easy access to check the source and check for possible updates.
We hope this paper helps to protect you, your family, friends and colleagues. Only by reducing the spreading of the virus can we “flatten the curve”, reduce the risks of working in the critical service we provide, and ensure adequate medical attention for all in need.
Take care and above all: fly safe!
