That’s really good news. Allianz insurance takes care of our well-being. To be precise, the well-being of flight passengers after the Corona crisis. This is what you expect from a good insurer and anyone who has ever seen the dimensions of Allianz’s headquarters in the north of Munich can assume that there is enough capacity for it.

What is it specifically about? Essentially about demotion. And that of the aviators AND that of the pilots. The latter, so the concern, might not have completely forgotten their profession during the year that lay behind us with little flight, but at least they might have gotten out of practice a lot. I praise the cyclists! You never forget to ride a bike.

Well, it’s primarily about private aviation, so Allianz is probably primarily concerned with the members of its own corporate board. But the “little people” could also be at risk when flying. For example, through wasp nests that could have formed in the cabins during long periods of standing.

In the end, does that mean that in the future there will not only be a “Sky Marshall” for unruly passengers on board, but also the exterminator? And on the other hand, one must also say that insects are no longer regarded as vermin, on the contrary. The Germans in particular have developed an almost erotic relationship with bees in recent years. So what if the exterminator took action against the insects on board? Does the Sky Marshall have to protect him from the angry mob then? Difficult.

Especially since the problem of so-called “rusty pilots” also exists in other areas
Especially since the problem of so-called “rusty pilots” also exists in other areas. After all, the vernacular has known that for a long time: “If you rest, you rust”. What about bar waiters who are rusty in lockdown? Maybe the Munich Oktoberfest was canceled again this year because the waiters no longer master the professional undercounter and would provide every guest with a full measure. In the end even one with a cupboard! A disaster for the catering industry.

Or rusty artists. Violinists who hold the violin the wrong way round. For example, one of my main occupations in the last nine months has been “forgetting texts”. It’s just stupid that you can’t take out insurance from Allianz.

The return to normal will not be easy. Especially because “normal” has meanwhile become a dirty word in some circles. For those who consistently follow the idea of “diversity”, “normal” is an exclusionary term. The world is colorful and the normal flier is just as much a part of it as the rusty pilot and the actor who cannot write his lines.

It’s all a question of perspective.
