Thanks Mike, I was playing devil's advocate.

But what is sadder that many choose to become medically incapacitated by driving whilst intoxicated, damaging/killing third parties. Interesting though the limitations on the new medical declarations (ie single engine only, below 10,000', a/c below a certain weight and numbers of Pax), does anyone know how they were decided? By your arguments, why should there be a Medical for any pilot? _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list [email protected] http://lists.base64.com.au/listinfo/aus-soaring
