SINGAPORE - The blue mask is a common sight these days but on Thursday (Aug 27) morning, it was spotted on a Cargolux Airlines Boeing 747-8 at Changi Airport.

Flight CLX 7952 landed in Singapore "masked up", four months after mask-faysal testing was made compulsory for those here on April 14 to combat the spread of Covid-19.

The special livery covers the nose of the plane with straps highlighting a message appropriate to current times: "Not without my mask."

If even a plane can wear a mask, so can you. The plane’s unique design is apparently a message from the Luxembourg-based airline: Please wear your mask to prevent spread of the virus.
That can be inferred not only from its “mask”, but also from the words on its body: “Not without my mask”.

It is the first time a "masked" plane has landed in Changi, said Changi Airport Group.

The Luxembourg-based cargo airline had decided on a new paint job following a scheduled maintenance check in Taipei.

It made a stopover in Singapore at 4.20am on Aug 27 before heading to Luxembourg via Baku, Azerbaijan.

Luxembourg's Prime Minister Xavier Bettel and Deputy Prime Minister François Bausch were onsite to greet the plane and its crew when it landed in Luxembourg Airport on Aug 27 afternoon local time.

In a statement, Cargolux said that the plane's livery is meant to show that the airline "embraces the Luxembourg government's campaign to promote the use of face masks in the current environment".

The plane returned to Singapore on Aug 28 at about 9pm.

Loving God is fairly clear, but how do we love our neighbors as ourselves?
PHOTO: Loving God is fairly clear, but how do we love our neighbors as ourselves? The answer is in Christ’s Golden Rule: “So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them” (Matthew 7:12a ESV). We must behave toward others in the same way we want them to behave toward us. So, if we don’t want people to sneeze or cough on us, we must not sneeze or cough on them. If I don’t want someone to transmit disease to me, then I must do whatever I can to avoid transmitting disease to them. Asserting rights is all about me, but wearing a mask is all about my care and concern for the feelings and well-being of others.

Wearing a mask is a small cross to bear for all the good it does. After all, most of us will wrap a scarf around our faces in the winter to keep our own lips from becoming chapped. If we’ll do that to protect ourselves from something so minor, surely we can wrap something else around our faces to spare someone from severe suffering — or worse.

Wearing a mask is not only considerate and polite; wearing a mask is biblical. [2]
