That's ridiculous. How can a lone FAA inspector unilaterally apply, to only one airline, a rule that overrides the legal document that we all operate to, the MEL?
By all means change it but any change
must apply to
all operators.

Perhaps you shouldn't go flying, John. And remember that the
other aircraft will have a serviceable TCAS which will issue a avoidance manoeuvre to the other crew if needed (unless of course it too is operating under the MEL with a U/S TCAS; highly unlikely). TCAS is
not required in
both aircraft.
