Not really. We've all had one principle beaten into us since the earliest days of air law. The FAA version of that principle is:

If specific complaint were made, with evidence, to the FAA that a pilot had flown in violation of Federal Regulation, then there is little doubt that FAA would investigate. The FAA has the power to...

I don't doubt for a minute that there have been plenty of display pilots following the Shoreham court case with interest. But the use of the term accident is worth a second look....

Absolutely right. The real questions here are around the enforcement of regulation. Should the CAA (and DGAC) regulate with a heavier hand? More ramp checks along the lines of the FAA?

A pilot flying on the strength of his 61.75 has the choice of which medical is valid from an FAA standpoint. 61.75(b)(4) could not be more transparent and requires no interpretation.
