Readers, take a look at the Class 2 medical regulations CASR Part 67) as an example. (and probably all the Part 67 medical regulations)
CASR 67.155 Who meets medical standard 2.
There is no mention of sleep apnoea. It's 100% pure fresh steaming BS. Yes, it appears in their DAME guidelines - which are not regulations that you must abide by. It's BS. And people fall for it. Just say no to BS.
Also search the Part 67 regulations for these words: Height. Weight. BMI. all of which are lead to the sleep apnoea conclusions.
Height, or weight, are not declarable items within a Class 2 medical standard. They are using information gained improperly from you, against you. Yet, we cannot pass GO without declaring those things. It's not right.
(Clint - your thoughts on that?)
