Suggestions for the FAA

... to keep flying safe

Recently I was interviewed by epidemiologist Nic Hulscher of The McCullough Foundation. The subject of aviation safety came up. The McCullough Foundation has devised a risk stratification method for detecting potential cardiac problems after covid shots that should be immediately implemented for pilots to keep flying safe. The link to the screening method is here, and the transcript of our conversation is below the video.

Kevin: We're all calling for the banning of these mRNA platform shots and I think the FAA would be a really good place to start. Something that you and Peter McCullough have recently described in one of your publications was risk stratification for the proteins that are coming out of the covid shot. And I think that's extremely important, especially in the airline industry. I am currently the Vice President of usfreedomflyers.org. We are focused on pilot health and the reporting of medical standards so that we can keep track of what's going on here. And I believe in your publication you mentioned that it was clear that we're seeing more of these injuries, these sudden heart attacks that are happening in younger, healthy athletes. But there's really no way to know if that person actually had the covid shot, when they got it, or which ones they were. And that's a significant problem, and this is something that needs to be looked at by the FAA.

The reason I say that is because it is clearly known now, and it's in all the literature, that these mRNA platform shots do in fact end up causing myocarditis, and myocarditis is something that's prohibited for a pilot to get a medical certificate. If you have myocarditis, you can't fly an airplane of any size. And the reason is because you can have sudden cardiac failure. And so, whoever the next FAA administrator is, we need to make sure they understand this, and we need to start a process whereby we can start collecting data on pilots and find out which ones got the shots, when they got them, which ones they were.

And we also need to start tying this to pilot incapacitations, which seem to be on the rise. And they stopped tracking that as well. They had a database within the FAA called the Pilot Incapacitation Data Registry and for some reason, they ended that process in the year 2022. They just stopped keeping track of the incapacitations that happened in the cockpit. That's dangerous because the only way that we're going to determine if there's erosion in safety is to look for safety signals like that. And they took that capability away. So we really need to look into that, find out why that happened and get these safety signals reinstated. It's a safety net. We need to do that to keep aviation safe.

Nic: Yeah, we don't want our pilots having cardiac arrests when they're flying. You know, we don't want that. We don't want more airline accidents that have now been happening at an increased rate. We want our pilots to be healthy without clinical or subclinical myocarditis, because some of them won't even know they have it until they have the cardiac arrest as shown in this paper here. And it's so disturbing that they stopped tracking this this information. I mean obviously they must have found something they didn't want the public to know. We want the pilots to be healthy. That's definitely something that should be focused on.

Kevin: Yeah. And so I'm trying to get that information from the FAA in FOIA requests. I want to know, why did you end this pilot incapacitation data registry? What was your decision making process on that? And I haven't heard back anything yet, so. Again, whoever the next FAA administrator is, we need to sit down, have a little chat, find out exactly what's going on here. You know, I'm all for freedom of choice, but the product's got to be safe. These products clearly are not safe. They need to be pulled off the market. Thanks for reading, and thanks for staying smart.
