Sorry just noticed that you seem to be saying that Insurers are recognising that LOL can be due to Organophosphate poisoning?

notwithstanding the other problems you refer to, I understood that the CAA were refusing to make a link between all these pilots with similar symptoms or recognise that something like Aerotoxic Syndrome exists.

I know a couple of guys who've lost licences after being diagnosed as suffering from stress related issues, or chronic fatigue syndrome but as J Soddy said in the program, it was the aeroplane that turned out to be the linking factor, which subsequent blood tests confirmed.

It's a trick one for sure & asking the insurers before you're affected sounds like good advice to me.
