Essential Oil Skin Care Tips for Frequent Fliers
Add 10 drops of a good Dry Skin essential oil blend to 1 ounce of your favorite shea butter-based body lotion for maximum benefit as well. Here are 5 essential-oil based in-flight skin care tips that have worked for me, a former Frequent Flier. Have your body lotion readily available so you can quickly mollify dry, itchy areas like shins and arms. For dry scalp (which causes embarrassing flakes) and lips in-flight, rub several drops of Lavender oil into your scalp and a single drop onto your lips to help eliminate dandruff and alleviate chapped lips. I like a blend of equal parts Roman Chamomile, Palmarosa, Ylang Ylang, Rose, and Sandalwood.

Future Shuttle Launches
True safety should begin with complete reality based thinking, back up systems and confidence in the abilities of the systems and those trusted to do their job. Just because the space shuttle would most likely be doing a dead stick landings as it always does should not make any difference, as the runway at Cape Canaveral is huge and made for such emergencies. Additionally why would the astronauts need to see to fly the spacecraft/aircraft at that point? After all they practice such aborted launches after lift off in simulators, where they are not actually looking at the ground and also we have available now systems, which are even used in Business Jets for zero/zero visibility landings. Is it possible to have such a system for the space shuttle launch? Or can we send up fire works along the perimeters of the spectator areas to trick a missile fired by anyone with a hand held surface to air shoulder launched weapon? We know our Space Shuttle could be targeted by International Terrorists. The systems send out many very hot flare type pieces out of the back of the aircraft and fool the Surface to air missile into thinking that those are the targets, thus the missile goes after the chafe flares instead of the actual aircraft.

De Ice Boots Preventative Care
Floor wax as it dries on skin is not a pretty thing, boy did it hurt and I never did that again. I remember an article in AOPA Magazine also touting the PBS product. Being that de-ice boots are a safety item many AI Mechanics will not sign off the annual if the boots look checked or old. If your de-ice boots look too far gone already try some floor wax and then PBS prep and then the sealant. Save you de-ice boots as they may save your life.
