It is all well and good saying that there are 25,000 issued of which 23,000 have medicals but how many are actually valid and in current use. 1 or 1,000 or 10,000? Carrying out the survey allows us to put REAL statistics across about the number of current IMC's, the type of flying they are being used for. This will help create a case that can be put across at European level based on fact not emotion.
Good post bose.

If you need any assistance collecting or collating this data give me a shout: I'm always happy to assist a worthwhile initiative, not so keen on helping folk on their ego trips
