UK pilots with HIV can finally work unrestricted after “landmark changes”
Reading now: 241
“Landmark changes” made to aviation guidance means pilots who are HIV-positive will finally be able to work unrestricted in the UK.
Those who disclosed that they were living with HIV were previously required to undergo complicated and expensive cognitive testing to assess their mental abilities before flying.
However, new guidance produced by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) states that those living with the virus are at a very low risk of suffering from conditions which could impact their ability to do so safely.
There will be a six-month amnesty period for aviation workers who have not disclosed their HIV status to update their medical records without facing enforcement action.
