Why not just get your D then? If you can't jump at night file for a waver or restricted D as others have in the past.

Nah, not important enough. I qualified many years ago, mostly. All that's left is to jump into a swimming pool with a canopy over me & survive.

The point is that the "D" requirement is irrelevant and, as has been noted before, petty. I spent nearly 30 years working toward my 12-hour badge & don't want it sullied by a waiver.

Ditto the PRO rating. If I can meet the accuracy requirements, I should get the rating regardless of which license I hold, what color socks I'm wearing, or whether I can play a kick-ass version of "Penny Lane" on the guitar.

I'm already an emotional cripple, and can survive without the 12-hour badge, But I do believe the people who support the "D" requirement should have the guts to step up and explain why.

Cheers,
Jon
