Thanks for the reply B`bub, I feel so sorry for the guy as he is such a nice fellow and was looking forward to a aviation career. It`s not his fault that his witnessed and had to deal with so many traumatic events, as part and parcel of his job, and is now having to "pay the price". I was hoping that because he has not been on medication of any kind and has been cognitive coping, he would be deemed as a strong, self disiplined, and motivated individual (obviously) as i`m sure just one of the things he has been through, would have put me or any other person in hospital or at least serious councelling. How he can even think about doing Atpl studies now, i`ll never know!!!!! I just hope he can get on, if not to the airlines, then maybe as a flying instructor, GOOD LUCK MATEY WHAT EVER YOU DO!
