Great feedback from you all, thank you! I have also read the following criteria posted on UK CAA website and I would have imagined airlines would follow similar criteria but I understand it can vary from country to country?The Department for Transport (DfT) sets the list of disqualifying convictions, including offences at the more serious end of the spectrum (with relatively minor offences usually not being included). Disqualifying convictions are selected under the following criteria:
- Any convictions directly related to terrorism
- Convictions that may be inappropriate for someone working in the aviation industry (e.g. immigration offences)
- Convictions over which someone could be subject to undue influence/coercion
- Convictions that call into question an individual's integrity and trustworthiness
