Same here guys,

Finished training 2008 and flying with a big airline for two years when I got diagnosed with type 1. At that point the CAA program was put on hold by EASA but after unfit for 6 months I got the medical back. Been flying on the scheme for over 3 years and I fly 800 hrs on an annual basis. Absolutely no issues and control is really good. Colleagues are very positive so I dont see any issue at all. I and a lot of fellow participants provided so much data by now that there should be enough proof to implement it on a european level. Some authorities are still being very resistant but they dont have any evidence to back it up so lets hope for once that EASA will take the responsibility to end this once and for all.
