DOD, United Airlines say masked passengers 'extremely unlikely' to catch COVID-19

U.S. Department of Defense and United Airlines conduct study and find the risk of exposure to coronavirus on commercial airlines is 'virtually nonexistent'; Fox News correspondent Bryan Llenas reports.

We're not sure this pilot should be flying with such an incurable case of Pac-Man fever.

A pilot flying over the Lincolnshire, England, paid homage to one of their favorite arcade games on Sunday by drawing Pac-Man — complete with one of Pac-Man’s nemesis ghosts — with their flight path.

The flight, which took off from Retford Gamston Airport (EGNE) in Nottingham at 11:35 a.m., lasted about an hour and a half, according to FlightRadar24. The pilot started by first tracing a ghost just north of the Linconshire Wolds Nature Preserve, before heading to the coast to outline Pac-Man over the villages of North Somercotes and Saltfleet. The plane landed back at EGNE just after 1 p.m.

PASSENGERS OPEN CABIN DOOR, USE EMERGENCY SLIDE BEFORE FLIGHT FROM LAGUARDIA

Flight-tracking data shows the pilot was operating a single-engine Van’s RV-8 homebuilt aircraft, registered G-RVEI. Information about the pilot was not made available via FlightRadar24 or FlightAware nor was whether the plane's operations were fueled by a steady diet of neon cherries or power pellets.

It's obvious the pilot had just eaten an energizer, as Pac-Man is clearly on the offensive in that flight path. (iStock)

News of pilot’s Pac-Man flight path follows similarly whimsical instances of pilots "drawing" images in the sky, such as that of the pilot who traced a heart over Iceland to thank health care workers amid the coronavirus pandemic, or the time a few Navy officers drew a "sky penis" over Washington state.
