Dangerous dicussion given AVMED

A discussion needed, but none the less a dangerous one.

Pehaps looking at the issues of why and how people are characterised to become pilots is more important, as anyone can be subject to, as chimbu says, an isolated episode.

There is no testing now for the basic criteria for being a pilot - "ability/ apptitude".

The only test is: "How much money the individual has/ has access to"

The training mechanism and system absolutely stinks, except for a few notable exceptions. As to the oversight [per Nick Xenophon] - stinks and is corrupt.

AND: the investigator can't get it right either.

Anymore??
