Ausdoc, an objective question: can you direct me to research (peer reviewed) that shows that pilots who have a cvd are less safe than non-cvd pilots.

I have spent days trying to search for such a reference, but have been unable to find any. What I would point out is that globally there have been millions of flight hours flown by cvd pilots and not one accident or incident recorded where a cvd has been shown as a cause. This would suggest a very strong case that a cvd is not a threat to flight safety.
