It is bizarre that the licences of pilots who fly in and out of various jurisdictions are not recognised. It would not be the case with any other profession, such as the medical profession. It seems so bizarre that some solution has not been worked out before now given that the profession involves the crossing of borders. Mr. Fitzpatrick is saying that it is really a political decision.
