Default Diabetic Pilots Sue the FAA

I've talked to Chris on the phone, he is passionate about being able to fly commercially but is a Type 1 Diabetic on insulin. Canada and England allow those pilots to fly commercially and the US can to but the FAA has not made a single decision either up or down since 2015. Chris got some good exposure via an interview with Fox46 here in CLT:
