-- FCC continues to send out reminders
Do broadcasters forget the importance of emergency
warning messages? Well, FCC has just issued a
reminder for them to never to forget - with
reference to these recent hurricanes and the
Las Vegas tragedy. FCC said such emergency
information should not be that difficult to
reach the deaf community!
-- teaching a deaf student pilot without interpreter
A flight instructor never had a deaf student pilot
during his 40 years of teaching. Suddenly
a deaf student pilot showed up. To communicate
with each other, the instructor used whiteboard
with markers and with simple hand gesture
system. It worked as the student passed all
the necessary exams. An interpreter in
the small and cramped airplane would not
be practical!
