Hi all,
By getting in contact with knowledgeble sources, i have been told that as long as my conviction is spent, i.e i have a
Basic Disclosure with nothing on it, my record is clear as such. I have been told that i don't have to state spent convictions when applying for an american visa, even if i'm asked. I have also been assured that if i ever applied to be a comercial pilot with any company i would not have to state the spent conviction either. I can't see gettin a air pass being any different?
Apperently the only time you are vetted and your past history can be seen is if i was applying for a job with children or the disabled (which even then i don't see reckless aarson as a teenager being a problem, i maybe wrong) and if i was applying for the police force (oh well).
Has anyone got any
FACTUAL information that a spent conviction would be a problem in comercial aviation?
Lew
P.S Thanks to all of you who have so far replied, much apreciated....
