Bravo!
But we dont need the colours changing anyway - they are fine as they are even for severe CVD pilots because we have used them without error for 24+ years.

Check out the CVDPA Facebook page for a new video.

It is of our Senator David Fawcett (an ex army pilot and UK ETPS graduate) raising questions in our Senate to the CASA CEO enquiring if they are trying to roll back the changes CASA were forced to make 24 years back after the Denison AAT case that allowed all CVD pilots to fly commercially by day and night up to First officer but not Captain in RPT.

The CVDPA (Arthur Pape et al) need you to join NOW and contribute directly to fund this case. They have court dates set for an appellant who has been an FO for several years and whose company want to promote him to Captain and the preparation for the show down is well underway. This case will likely result in all colour vision testing for pilots dropped in Australia and this will be a fine precedent for use in all countries.

If you know of other CVD affected pilots or wannabe pilots please alert them and encourage them to join.
