Healthy GA pilot volunteers are needed this year at AirVenture for computer-administered confidential testing to help the FAA determine when previously injured pilots are safe to return to flying. The FAA requires cognitive screening tests to help determine when a pilot who has suffered a stroke, head, or brain injury can be considered safe to return to the cockpit. The testing project aims to create a set of normative data from a group of healthy pilots that can be adapted and used for comparison against the functionality of previously injured individual pilots. General aviation pilots who participate in the project will receive benefits.
