EASA med medisinsk database - Curt Lewis


EU Safety Body To Set Up Pilots' Medical Database

The European Aviation Safety Agency aims to set up a medical database for pilots by December 2016 following the Germanwings crash earlier this year.

The EASA comments were in response to recommendations from a task force, which in July called for improved psychological screening of new pilots and a European database with details of medical visits.

A young pilot barricaded himself inside the cockpit and crashed a jet operated by Germanwings, part of Lufthansa, into the Alps in March, killing all 150 people on board.

Prosecutors have found evidence that Andreas Lubitz, who had suffered severe depression and may have feared losing his job, had researched suicide methods and concealed an illness from his employer, sparking a debate on supervision and medical secrecy.
