Speed210, let me clarify something: AIEXPATS is a name used by several expats, across aircraft types and nationalities. For instance, while I did not write a word concerning the tax issue, I did express my opinion on medical privacy and again, medical issues are a confidential topic between the patient and his/her physician; in the case of aviatiors, between the governing/regulatory body and the flight crewmember. It seems to me it is their business, not yours, not mine, not Nev's not the journos'. A general topic of health is in my view ok, but referring to a specific case is not; it is already a shame that to fill newspaper or magazine pages, some editors throw ethics out the window.
