There was none of this BS inferring '"simulated" charter flights etc. That really is the biggest unjustifiable reason I have heard CASA come up with in a long time. The person of course had to gain the appropriate class of medical required for the licence they were issued with prior to exercising the privileges of the licence which is fair enough. These days when licences are "perpetual" this same BS line of argument would have your licence cancelled or suspended immediately you no longer held the appropriate medical - go figure.....
