GENTLEMEN I believe its now time to reconsider the wearing of face mask whilst flying/sailing now that we’ve let the rest of the country in to our paradise the bug has infected heaps and will continue to do so You all know my feelings towards rules but wearing face masks is perhaps going to slow it down a tad Were all bound sooner than later going to catch it but at least wearing the mask may give us a better shot at LATER then SOONER Those of us that have respiratory problems do face a more dangerous time than those that haven’t but still were ALL old farts (not so for uncle g ) so when ya get crook your gunna know about it big time This bug is going to be with us for yonks I don’t want to wear a mask but if I should get it at least I ( I would find out fast ) shouldn’t pass it on wearing the bloody thing So for now on I will be wearing one sailing and flying an I’m gunna hate it PLEASE POST YOUR THOUGHTS how do you feel about wearing the mask

In my considered opinion it is debatable just how much protection a face mask provides especially in an uncrowded outdoor environment. I think that it is more important to just stay away from flying/boating if/when you are crook with anything that may be spreadable eg Covid, Flu, Cold etc.
If the consensus on the day is to wear a mask then I’ll wear one but given that you can’t eat/drink through a mask and given that we are probably closer to one another (even with social distancing – which we all know is rigorously practised at the field) at lunch time I personally don’t see the need.
Given that the Govt rules are changing daily it may someday be mandated that masks must be worn both indoors & out. Time enough then methinks.

yep I agree but eating etc if your space is just then there isnt a problem heres the kicker at the shack dunalley I was told of a farm worker just up the road has covid he didnt know he had it and was feeling fine but all staff had to get tested then he found out how long did he have it ? how many people has he passed it on to you just dont know so Im wearing one since then two more at murdunna have tested positive

Mr Moose Im not after a vote just a thought about if you want to wear one flying /sailing as always its your choice just be aware of the person next to you has he been as safe as you? do you wish to take the risk thats all ….No vote on doing it or not we dont want to stay home to be safe so if we venture out for our sport /fun /think about how we can do it with minimal risk I dont want to see you with the wheel chair mob one foot in an one out or your hide stretched out for tanning

Gentlemen the plot has been lost…. ofcouse the field is a vast open space why would you wear a mask out there that isnt the issue the issue is closeness if a conversation is happening ……either a fair distance is applied or simply flip on the mask as for lunch again we do abide by the distance (space ) so no problem but for those that feel that we should wear a mask at the BBQ I have devised a cunning plan we cut a letter opening slot into the mask that has a swinging lid you lift open the lid to chuck in the tucka an it shuts leaving the mask safe once again YOU CAN BUY one or two at the TOP GUN FLIGHT SCHOOL CAFETERIA we are nearly finished the prototype mask for drinking with a straw this has proved very difficult as to where to put the hole as some drink from the side of the mouth others from the center then there are others like the moose who just chuck their face in an lap it up Now to be serious this bug is an airborn bug thingi correct me if im wrong we all know the MR MOOSE has a flatulence problem right we’ve all been at some time down wind from the fur coat when he has passed wind or as we know it as “dropping a clanger ” so if he got covid would that clanger kill sheep …….should he fly in a seperate paddock ……………………….justsay’n

If any one feels like wearing a mask then do so it is a individuals choice.
I will talk to Greg to see if I can have my own PRIVATE paddock

I find it hard to breath with them but I follow the rules, outside with fresh air and wind and distance I think is the most logical thing we can do to stay safe…ps tried to stuff a sausage through a mask…dosn’t work all that well. The most important thing is to make sure all our flyers are fully vaccinated, maybe show proof of vax on entry to the field to give us all piece of mind, I do not want to be around anyone who is not vaccinated and anyone who is not vaccinated are being selfish to others who have a compromised immune system so lets start a proof of vax register for our flyers asap.

Who Is going to police this proposal ?
Non of us has the authority to demand anything.
I want no part of this type of suggestion it will only lead to the demise of what is is a pleasant outing
Introducing rules won’t work
Instead of everyone suggesting different rules why don’t we discuss our so called problems as a group next time we fly

I thinketh the moose is takeing the micky out of me with the police/ rule / etc nonsence there isnt a demand to wear a mask but a request from me to others to think of how we now need to consider the well being of others like myself and dave with serious lung conditions I will be wearing a mask when in close to others other than that out in the field I wont so you see the request is to think how we now should operate with the growing threat that unless your still in the dark ages is comming from 0- to 1400 since we opened the boarder what’s tell ya As before No rules No police encorcement just simple common sence for others…… and in the long run you THIS NOTICE TO MEMBERS has done its job I think by getting us all to think what we should be thinking about and how in the future we do our thing as for vax proof that for me is to much of an invasion of privacy for me personally if there are people unvaxed please consider wearing a mask like me ………………. so endth my rant and I thank you for your imput
