I'm in the process of gathering a list of all of the commercial pilots who have lost their jobs due to diabetes and insulin usage. There are pilots in Canada who use insulin and fly into our airspace and into our airports and they are allowed to keep their jobs. I'll probably be losing my medical in the next couple of years due to insulin usage and have decided (with some help) to fight this unfair FAA regulation. If you or anybody you know have lost your career due to insulin, please PM me. I check it weekly and will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank You.
