I realise that this forum is often used by some as a "pissing competition" but if those whom advocate continuing to fly whilst knowing, or believing, they may suffer an incapacitating event are even vaguely serious it is an absolutely unacceptable position to take.

It does not matter whether you are multi-crew or single pilot, to not report or admit to a medical condition which could mean withdrawl of your licence priveleges is a dereliction of duty. Would those who disagree want their family members being flown around by a pilot who may suffer incapacitation and cause the loss of an aircraft and occupants? I think not. Flvckoflyer is to be commended for his honesty and his responsible attitude toward what most believe to be an honourable occupation.
