Folks,
Reminds me a bit of the choplogic of many years ago, you couldn't get a (now) Class 1 medical unless you could meet all the eyesight tests without correction.
Safety, you know.
But once you had a CPL or higher, then you could get glasses if needed to met the eyesight standard.??
At the time, DCA simply refused to even discuss the matter, them's were the standards, FIFO.
Change of DG and CMO and all of a sudden it was safe to do an initial CPL flight test wearing glasses.
Same obstinate lack of logic and commonsense here.
With this mob, nothing much changes, without political blunt trauma.
Tootle pip!!
