Airplane pilots wear film badges to monitor their exposure to ionizing radiation during flights, particularly at high altitudes where cosmic radiation levels are elevated. These badges help ensure that pilots do not exceed safe radiation exposure limits, thereby protecting their health. Additionally, tracking radiation exposure is essential for compliance with safety regulations and for maintaining a safe working environment in aviation.
The film badges (radiation dosimeters) indicate if a pilot has been exposed to higher levels of ionizing radiation, as from cosmic rays at high altitudes, or from other sources. Limiting the periodic exposure prevents unsafe effects on the flight personnel. Most US pilots now use a different device, a thermoluminescent detector or TLD. So for short: Because they work at high altitudes, pilots are exposed to high levels of background radiation from cosmic rays. To monitor their radiation exposure, pilots wear film badges.

Film badges are typically designed to detect higher-energy radiation, such as gamma and beta particles. Alpha particles have low penetrating power and are usually stopped by air or a thin layer of material, which can prevent them from reaching the film inside the badge to create an image. As a result, film badges may not be sensitive enough to detect alpha particle radiation effectively.
Film badges are typically used to monitor ionizing radiation, which includes X-rays and gamma rays. These badges contain a film that darkens when exposed to ionizing radiation. They do not monitor non-ionizing radiation like radio waves or visible light.

Yes, film badges are commonly used as dosimeters to detect and measure radiation exposure. A film badge contains photographic film that darkens in response to exposure from ionizing radiation. It is worn by individuals working in environments where they may be exposed to radiation, and the film is then developed and analyzed to determine the level of exposure.
alpha can't make it through the badge holder to the film.

The quote is "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges." This line comes from the movie The Treasure of the Sierra Madrestarring Humphrey Bogart, Walter Huston and Tim Holt and directed by John Huston. Three prospectors are accosted by a gang of bandits claiming to be lawmen. When the bandits are asked to show their badges they reply with this line. The quote was also used in Blazing Saddles. John Belushi popularized the quote in a few of his skits on Saturday Night Live.This quote was also used in Good Luck Charlie: It's Christmas when Bob, Pj, and Gabe were on a road and what they thought was a police officer came up to their car.
