There lies the problem, if a commercial pilot was depressed but didn't
want to lose his job he would most likely continue flying depressed and
not tell anyone.

Or, "self medicate."

Smoking?

Alcohol is a good example.

The article says she battled depression and opposed medication. It
doesn't say whether or not she was still flying, but I wonder if she
opposed medication because it would mean the loss of her pilot's
license.

Yeah, that could be. Pilots are still expected to just suck it up and
keep their mouths shut, which might be a tragic paradox. It suggests that
there might be suicidal people flying who might otherwise be safe and
treatable except they don't want that one last great thing taken from
them.

It's a tough issue, and I can see both sides of it. I am glad that
there are studies underway to try to really determine whether or not
these drugs have effects relevant to flying. Given the social stigmas
about psychological problems, I suspect the FAA is a little more
likely to reject these drugs than other types of medication. What we
need is some objective studies so we know what we are really dealing
with.

I know the Egypt Air crash is still heavily disputed but ti might be a case
where anti-depressants might have made a difference, we will never know.

Please refute anything I have written on this thread directly, with
evidence.

Until then you're simply exposing your ignorance.

Then answer a simple question dumb ass. Are you a doctor or not.

Is that direct enough for you?

Nope.

Try again.
