Great stuff - thanks.
Please don't get me wrong, I'm just curious really and am in no way implying that the Pilot community is anything less than properly motivated but when it is suggested that flight safety regulations are either unscientific or supported by science coming from a less than objective source, I find it deeply disturbing. We all know how science, like statistics, can be used to manipulate the truth.
If, as you suggest, the basis for the new reg's is not to be trusted then you have a professional duty to strike rather than observe them - get BASSA round the table and go for it together! But it won't come to that. I don't think you'll find that the extreme examples you give will ever materialise in your contract.
JT you say that the science the reg's are based on is:
written by a scientist for a lobby group with no peer review and for pay.........hardly independent or unbiased
What makes you say that?
