Subject: Official Information request - Medical Compliance for Air New
Zealand Pilots

 

Dear Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand/Michael Wood

 

Are you able to confirm if the Civil Aviation Authority has completed any
due diligence surrounding the licensing of pilots following the mass roll
out of the Experimental Gene Therapy (Covid-19) vaccine.

 

Are you able to provide me with any and all communications/correspondence
that the Civil Aviation Authority has completed in assessing the safety of
the experimental gene therapy and any agencies be it the Ministry of
Health, Office of the Prime Minister of any agencies and the dates
associated.

 

Along with that and given the government is the main shareholder in Air
New Zealand are you able to provide the following information

 

- Have Air New Zealand mandated the gene therapy for their pilots

- What proportion of Air New Zealand pilots have been fully vaccinated

 

Are you able to confirm as the science evolves in relation to the
experimental gene therapy that the Civil Aviation Authority will continue
to monitor pilots and their ability to meet safety standards associated
with the Medical Certificate Application Form.

 

Recently the attached Pfizer document has been released - 
[3]https://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/202...

 

Is the Civil Aviation Authority in receipt of this? If not you are now.

 

Based on the ten pages of serious side effects that are listed in this
document would a pilot be able to pass a medical because the gene therapy
is shown to list the following as serious side effects

 

- Embolism & thrombosis

- Cardiac

- Heart attack

- Seizures

- Neurological and more

 

All of these side effects occurred in the short term - so to me that would
mean that all of these sudden events could occur at anytime and especially
given the booster roll out.

 

Given this now known information this would mean any and all pilots would
not be able to pass a medical would it not because they are now suddenly
susceptible to these side effects at anytime? I would note there is
currently a phenomenon of high level athletes dropping dead from sudden
events so this could happen to pilots with a full plane of people.  Please
note this also serves as a warning when the inevitable occurs which if you
do your research plane crashes have become a lot more common in the USA a
highly vaccinated country.

 

Who would be liable if an Air New Zealand plane with a load of passengers
came down? The government or Civil Aviation Authority for licensing the
pilot now that they are aware of this information.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Chuck Schooner

Tēnā koe Chuck,

The fatal accident that you refer to is currently under investigation by the Civil Aviation Authority. As a part of all investigation processes, the investigator in charge will review medical and pathological evidence. As the investigation is still ongoing, your request for information is refused in accordance with s 6(c) of the Official Information Act 1982, as the release of information would be likely to prejudice the maintenance of the law, including the prevention, investigation, and detection of offences, and the right to a fair trial.

Furthermore, the vaccination status of the pilot is private medical information. As such, this element of your request is refused in accordance with s 9(2)(a) to protect the privacy of natural persons, including that of deceased natural persons.

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

Dear Bridgette Chisnall,

Further follow up can you please provide the CAA reporting for this crash. As part of the reporting can you confirm if a sudden event happened with this pilot? If a sudden event isn’t investigated why not?
I understand the pilot was very experienced and widely respected. Can you also confirm vaccination status.

Dear Bridgette Chisnall, M Wood,

Noted - please provide a copy when complete or link me to where I can find copies of all reporting.

I also link you to a sworn affidavit to a military doctors submission. All of this information is now coming out so suggest you start watching this space. https://americasfrontlinedoctors.org/2/w...

Michael Wood might also want to start assessing sudden events of all the individual car crashes that are occurring, couple that with all the other crashes and fully investigate sudden events.

Rather than slowing down drivers and destroying productivity he might want to assess the risk of vaccinated drivers now on New Zealand roads.

I will continue to update you and prove when I have concrete proof that this is happening. But organizations like yourself could be honest whistleblowers as this stuff becomes more prevalent. Be brave like some of the honest ambulance officers now speaking out that our media continue to try and hide.

Yours sincerely,

Chuck Schooner
