The following is a personal submission of William J. Hamilton, MAIAA: Vice President and Technical Director of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association of Australia, AOPA, and President of Australian Warbirds Association, AWA. I have noted this as a personal submission, as there has not been time to have the submission ratified by the Executive Committee of AOPA or the executive of AWA. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: There is no provision of the Chicago Convention, and in particular Annex 1 of the convention, that necessities aviation medical or other standards be exempt from the right and proper operation of various Australia Commonwealth or State Human Rights and Equal Opportunities statutes. Summary of Questions to be Addressed. Would an exemption in this case be consistent with the objects of DDA and SDA. No, Failure to grant such an exemption to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, CASA will NOT impeded civil aviation safety in Australia, or the safe conduct of Australian international civil aviation. Indeed, it is the firm view of the author that no such exemption is necessary, as any differences in Australian civil aviation medical standards, resulting from the need of CASA to be required to rigorously justify medical standards under DDA and SDA is an excellent check in an area that has a very chequered history. It should well understood the derivation of aviation medical standards was from military screening standards, established for the purpose of eliminating some 95% of applicants for flight training in the US Army. This was shortly before World War 1. At or about the same time, similar screening tests were instituted by what became the Royal Flying Corp, which became the Royal Air Force, RAF. On the establishment of the Royal Australian Air Force, RAAF, similar screening practices were adopted. It should be well understood that the medical standards has little to do with the actual physical or mental minimum abilities required to safely fly an aircraft. VISUAL STANDARDS An Example if Discrimination, Past, Present and the Future ?? When the author commenced commercial flying in Australia, an initial commercial medical certificate would not be granted if the eyesight standards could not be achieved without correction (glasses). That this was NOT a safety issue, but a policy, was attested to by the fact that once the first commercial license had been granted, visual correction was allowed. There is a long history of dispute about colour perception standards, and the establishment of an exemption for CASA would enable those who have opposed the advances made in recent years, TO REVERSE the far more satisfactory standards in use in Australia, standards that are still not entirely related to NO MORE than justified requirements. CASA has consistently turned to European standards in the last three or so years, because of a mistaken view that: More restrictive standards are synonymous with higher standards. The functions of CASA are specified in S.9 of the Civil Aviation Act 1988, and aviation safety is the primary function. Without challenge, the United States of America has the worlds best air safety outcomes, in all categories. The medical standards of the US Federal Aviation Administration are generally less restrictive then Australia, and far less restrictive than the European Economic Community, EEC and European Civil Aviation Conference, ECAC, Joint Aviation Authority, JAA "medical standards. The EEC/ECAC region does not have an overall favorable safety record comparable to US, therefor the more restrictive/higher medical of EEC/ECAC have not contributed to a better air safety outcome. This is not surprising, pilot incapacitation/pilot morbidity, at any level of aviation is so rare as to be an insignificant safety issue. The author believes it is clear that higher/more restrictive/highly discriminatory medical standards cannot be shown to be necessary to the achievement of acceptable air safety outcomes. Discriminatory pilot licensing standards have been established for many reasons. Should an exemption be granted irrespective of consistency with the objects of the DDA and SDA There are no valid grounds for such an action. CASA has made reference to matters of compliance with International Civil Aviation Organization , ICAO, Standards and Recommended Practices, SARPS. Compliance with ICAO SARPs can be achieved in two ways, by literally complying, or by filing a difference. It should be well understood that the act of a contracting state ( of the Convention) filing a difference brings that state into compliance. The author of this paper flew for Australian registered heavy transport aircraft, world wide, for almost 35 years, on Australian pilot licenses that did NOT comply with ICAO Annex1. Australia simply filed a difference. The differences were more than medical standards, there are other areas of Australian aviation regulation that discriminates against Australia pilots. The origin of some of these differences were regulator/operator arrangements to inhibit the transfer of Australian licenses, thus limiting the ease with which Australian licensed pilots could take up employment outside Australia. Is there an arguable case of unlawful discrimination to require an exemption. NO. Unlawful discrimination should be eliminated. Indeed the author would argue that the present CASA medical standards should be critically examined, to ensure that they are the absolute minimum standards required for the safe operation of aircraft. Are there conditions which should be imposed on the granting of an exemption in this matter. NO EXEMPTION SHOULD BE GRANTED, therefor the issue does not arise. Would an exemption in this case be consistent with the objects of the DDA and SDA. NO. The granting of such an exemption to CASA will enable the imposition of further discriminatory standard, standards that have not been rigorously justified as being the minimum necessary standards to maintain acceptable aviation safety outcomes. Thus, the granting of such an exemption would be completely INCONSISTENT with the aims and objects of the DDA and SDA. Yours sincerely,  W.J.R. HAMILTON APPENDIX 1 Annotated version of the CASA Application for the information M/s Margaret Pagani, for the purpose of another submission to this matter. The annotations/comments by the author are in blue type. Professor Alice Tay President Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission GPO Box 5218 SYDNEY NSW 1042 Dear Professor Tay EXEMPTION FROM THE APPLICATION OF THE SEX DISCRIMINATION ACT 1984 AND THE DISABILITY DISCRIMINATION ACT 1992 The Civil Avaition Safety Authority (CASA) seeks the Commissions exemption pursuant to section 44 of the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (the SDA) and section 55 of the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (the DDA). The exemption that CASA wishes to obtain is in respect of the application of sections 18 and 26 of the SDA and sections 19 and 29 of the DDA to persons acting pursuant to Part 6 of the Civil Aviation Regulations 1988 (CAR 1988) and to the proposed Part 67 of the Civil Aviation Regulations 1998 (CAR 1998) (respective copy enclosed), for a period of 5 years. Part 6 of CAR 1988 and the proposed Part 67 of CAR 1998 regulate the issuance of aviation medical certificates to applicants for flight crew (student pilot, pilot, flight engineer, flight navigator, flight service officer) and air traffic controller licences. Without a medical certificate a person cannot obtain a relevant licence. This is interesting, there is no such thing as a Flight Service Officer any longer, as an operating position, and I believe there are NO valid and current Flight Navigator licenses in existence. Many Australia aviation activities do not require a medical certificate to fly an aircraft, there is no record to show that the safety outcomes where certificate is required, is a better safety record than the activities where no certificate is required. This is consistent with FAA research. CASA has received advice from the Commonwealth Attorney-General Department that the proposed Part 67 of CAR 1998 may be in breach of the above sections of the SDA and the DDA (copy email dated 18 April 2002 from Mr Peter Arnaudo and email dated 26 June 2002 from Ms Elen Perdikogiannis). As the proposed Part 67 of CAR 1998 substantially ( in the usual CASA fashion, substantially means that we have changed what we wanted to change, and hope that the industry will wear it ) reflects Part 6 of CAR 1988, it may be that the latter may also be in breach of the SDA. Part 6 of CAR 1988 and the proposed Part 67 of CAR 1998 are based on international standards and recommended practices, as prescribed in Chapter 6 of Annex 1 (copy enclosed) to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, to which Australia is a Contracting State (the Convention, generally referred to in the aviation industry as the Chicago Convention, is reproduced as Schedule 1 of the Air Navigation Act 1920). Conformity with international standards and practices prescribed under the Convention is necessary, otherwise Australias regulatory regimes for aviation safety and practices would be put at great risk of not being accepted by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (the body administering the Convention) and other Contracting States. The major criticism of CASA by the 1999/2000 ICAO audit was the lack of CASA standards, and particularly in the maintenance and engineering areas, CASA must be satisfied was identified as the effective standard. CASA was criticized for its lack of Advisory Material. CASA was criticized for the number of non compliances, because of failure to register differences to ICAO. Registering a difference brings any contracting state into conformity, on the basis that all such matters become available to any state, which may then choose or not, as the case may be, to restrict aircraft, crews etc from such a state. It is my view that NO difference filed with ICAO by Australia, as a result of proper recognition of the various HR and EOC statutes, will in any way draw criticism of Australia for lack of compliance with ICAO SARPs. In fact, most ICAO Standards Recommended Practices and Procedures, are so broad as to be quite flexible, even before there is a need to file a difference. The best example of how differences are accepted is in the crewing of Australian aircraft. The only Australia license that is, without question, ICAO compliant, is the PPL. All other licenses, for many years, have NOT complied, the result of a deal between DCA and the airlines in about 1964, to stem the flow of pilots out of the country. Although there has been a move towards ICAO compliance for professional licenses, the matter is not complete, ie the Australian ATPL still does not have the recognition of the NZ ATPL. The operation of Australia aircraft, internationally, has NEVER been hindered by the filed differences to Annex 1, ( or the fact that Australia has very often failed to file differences) Accordingly, as advised by the Attorney-General Department, CASA has already initiated action to have section 98 of the Civil Aviation Act 1988 amended, so as to enable the making of regulations (premised on standards and practices under the Chicago Convention) that would prevail over inconsistent provisions of the SDA and the DDA. CASA cannot, however, say what the time frame is for this amendment to be enacted. We should absolutely oppose this application, it is not necessary for the safety of aviation generally, or for ICAO compliance. It should also be remembered that ICAO SARPs ( including the effect of filed differences) are only required for International Air Transport, and the adoption of ICAO SARPs for any or all domestic operations is a matter for Australia as a sovereign nation. Few argue that the ICAO framework provided the best available framework for domestic air transport  air transport, but ICAO consensus should not supplant Australias arguably far more advanced approach to rights and freedoms, compared to (probably the majority of) many ICAO signatory states. A significant number of ICAO states do not even permit women to fly aircraft ( or drive an automobile) at all. In the meantime, the making of the amendment regulations for Part 67 of CAR 1998 is imminent, and, to avoid the risk of discrimination complaints being lodged against CASA, CASA seeks the Commission favourable consideration of its application for exemption pursuant to section 44 of the SDA and section 55 of the DDA, as I have set out above. I note that the DDA does provide, under section 47, for the relevant CASA regulations to be prescribed, so that anything done by a person acting in accordance with those regulations will not constitutue unlawful discrimination. However, the SDA does not have an equivalent provision. In any event, the process of obtaining a section 47 DDA exemption would appear to be quite lengthy. Accordingly, exemption by the Commission pursuant to section 44 of the SDA and section 55 of the DDA would appear to be the most efficacious way of enabling CASA to discharge its aviation safety functions in conformity with international standards pending the amendment of section 98 of the Civil Aviation Act 1988. If required, I will arrange for relevant CASA officers to meet with the Commissions nominated officers, or with the Commission itself, or for the provision of additional information that the Commission may require, in order to assist it in reaching its decision. The CASA contact officer in this matter is XXXXXXX, Legal Counsel, Office of Legal Counsel. His telephone number is (02) 6217 xxxx, and his email address is xxxxxxxx@casa.gov.au.

An early but well known example of this is the story of Douglas Bader. Bader lost both legs in an aircraft accident in the 30s, and was medicalled out of the RAF. With the pilot shortages of early WW11, he was permitted to rejoin the RAF, and was one of the most outstanding pilots of WW11.

ICAO Annex 1, complete, including current details of all differences filed with Annex1, including Australian differences.  Note: QANTAS v. Christie: The US age 60 rule DID NOT stem from medical requirements, but from an industrial dispute beteen American Airlines and their pilots. In the opinion of the author, if this case was re appealed, the judgement could well be reversed, because of the number of countries that no longer apply the age 60 rule. Qantas now has a number of Captains flying at 60+, but are constrained geographically. There are many co pilots 60+ who are not so constrained. Full details of the history of the age 60 rule are available from the author, if required. As a result of the passage of time since the Christie case, and developments in that time, it is NOT relevant to this matter  Except for people like your truly, and Prof. Patrick Hudson, University of Leiden, The Netherlands, and many other exponents of the risk management approach to aviation safety, who promote outcome base regulation, and not the prescriptive everything is in the rules approach of ICAO or CASA.
