>safety comes first. Always.
The safest way to keep the airspace above the US would be to ban all general and commercial aviation.
Safety does not come first. Safety never comes first, because the safest course of action is to never do anything. It is always a balancing of risk.
It is very unfortunate that something like this is keeping you from your dream. I'm sorry.
- ghoward 4y agoI actually mention this in my post that I linked. Yes, another of their missions is to facilitate aviation. What I meant is that in my case, the default decision couldn't be to give me a medical. So I should have limited the "safety comes first" to my case. A more charitable interpretation is to say that pilots without issues are defined as safe, which they are even if they are not in practice. They're safe enough.
