frank marriott Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Have to be the understatement of the year! However, CASA is aware there is a perception from some elements of the pilot community that CASA can take an overly rigorous approach in terms of testing and contesting opinions from other doctors. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yenn Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 from what I see on the internet there are a lot more declined medicals than CASA figures suggest. Either a lot of people are making up stories to discredit CASA or CASA are fudging the figures. Or maybe both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe both. I suspect that the process becomes convoluted and people don't line up for a medical or CASA keeps demanding more tests until the applicant gives up. Not unreasonable but it distorts the stats. There probably should be column for "applications not proceeded with" along with "applications declined" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
