Pilot's artificial arm 'became detached while landing plane'

[Discorde]

I've wavered between 'yes' and 'no' during the course of this thread. I finally came down on the 'yes' side - let this pilot continue to fly.

Perhaps it would be helpful if the CAA issued an official policy statement to the media stressing that disabled pilots are fit to fly professionally as long as they meet the competence standards required.

The travelling public are currently probably more at risk from crew fatigue than from prosthetic limb detachment.
