Summary: The commenter, a pilot, supports the petition for reconsideration to establish clearer medical certification standards. They argue that the current discretionary issuance policy is arbitrary and that the proposed exemption would improve aviation safety.
I strongly support this petition for exemption. All pilots deserve clear medical certification standards. The current arbitrary and ambiguous discretionary issuance policy denies them that. I endured over 24 years of the current policy until granted my own special issuance in May 2021. This petition, if granted, will improve aviation safety and is in the public interest. Please issue this exemption promptly.
