I think everyone is looking at this all wrong. We have to start looking at all of the other far's that we can be exempted from since we are cargo carriers.
*No more 250 below 10.
*No more need for a valid medical.
*No need for recurrent training.
*No need for line checks.
*No need for current maintenance.
*No need for alternates.
The list goes on.....
We can easily prove to the FAA that these things are too costly to continue to enforce and should therefore be exempted. How nice would it be to fly the rest of your career not ever having to worry about enforcement action.
We can also submit new taglines for the FAA. "Safety is no accident, unless you are a cargo pilot"
"The FAA, providing two levels of safety, a good one and a not so good one."
