Thanks guys. It was the CAD test I conducted last and failed. Protane deficient.
NZ CAA give more freedom for CVD pilots in providing more operational testing which I think is a lot fairer considering there has only been one "CVD related" incident in commercial flying history. Until it becomes standardised across other international bodies I would only be restricted to flying in NZ? (from what I believe, please correct me if I'm wrong). CAA does not mention anything about not being able to hold a ATPL licence only that you would need to be in radio contact with a controlled aerodrome which is very likely in most cases. Again, I would have to pass the night time OVCA component.
As far as the rest of my vision, I passed with flying colours, so yes not blind haha. I will have a look into that article you suggested.
I'm very familiar with the CVDPA page but yet to join. That will be my next step in chasing info.
