Always struck by contrast - aviation regulators who’ve embraced and benefited immensely from no-fault safety reporting can’t seem to rationalize that the entire medical qualification system for pilots is killing people (literally in the case of German Wings). System as designed encourages concealment by ending careers and destroying livelihoods. One obviously can’t fly commercial airliners impaired or with a material medical condition, but one can’t manage that risk without data. We need a no-fault early retirement fund or some similar mechanism needs to be out there to help get psychologically distressed pilots out of the cockpit and into treatment…with a possible path back too. Just a terrible and inhumane situation all around.
