If he does win, the courts should ban him from leaving his house, as he may be a danger to others if he was to have a fit while walking down the street, then have the electricity cut off in his house so that the poor man cant make the mistake of playing or watching something(flickering light bulb maybe) that may cause a siezure, wouldnt want to let the poor bloke have to take care of himself

What is wrong with people particularly the US with there penchant for litigation I fell over last year on a curb broke my ankle in 3 places, but wouldn't consider suing, my kids were laughing there heads off that their dad couldnt jump puddles, had I sued(not that I know how to sue for personal stupidity) it would have gone against everything I have tried to instill in my kids.

Can't bag the Yanks too much. They are the source of amusement for the free world.
Just makes you more appreciative of your own country and fight harder against Amercianisms.

We ARE the free world, given this forum deals with a WW2 sim you would think some appreciation would be given to us Americans given how much help we gave the whole of Europe the UK and Russia during those years. How easy we forget... Tell ya what, the next time some crazy German decides to pwn your country(s) again, dont call us. After all, we are here for your amusement not to fight your wars right? Keep fighting these so called Americanisms (wtf does that even mean?) and us Americanismsms wont take any notice of you anyhow. Glad we could amuse you, perhaps after a few decades under some totalitarian rule you will beg us to stop making you laugh and come save your sorry ungrateful asses, again.

Please, give us a break, firstly this is about Americans love for suing people and while Im sure we are all happy and appreciative that you eventually joined in WW2 you made massive amounts of money out of it and you were a little late for the start as you were for WW1.

Of course the world appreciates the great sacrifices your troops made, but the Americans back stateside, hardly suffered at all in comparison with the British, Europeans and the in particular the Russians.

Oh by the way it's the Aussies and British helping you fight your wars at the moment, should we do this lend lease or just because we are allies?

Apologies to 99.9% of Americans as you are good people, but saying that you ARE the free world is a bit much, I'm quite happy living in Australias little piece of free world thanks.

Spot on mate.
I love the 'don't call us' comment. I don't think anyone would after they snubbed everyone anyway and only did something once they got their butts kicked (ww2). Who called who after 9/11.

Wtf - this guy shouldn't have received his wings in first place.
Who checked him? Even in ancient Rome soldier were checked for epilepsy - the were placed in front of a rotating wagon wheel with light source behind.

Even worse: He dumb as a piece of bread. What made him tell the doctors the truth, that he had an epileptic seizure?! Being a pilot he should have been aware of the outcome.
He should have told them he fell, happens.

Anyway, I wonder how this ends.
Imho he probably will be successful om claim medical costs, but not any loss of income.

ITT: Middle age men acting like children.

Actually as a child even I wasn't so ignorant as to get into "my country is better than yours" arguments.

the actual free world and "best country in the known/unknown universe" is SPAIN. We don´t care about rules or laws. We just do whatever the f**k we want.

And we are also cleverer than the rest of the world, specifically when it comes to the economy.

That´s why we will follow Greece, Ireland and Portugal on their way down into the abyss.

Main point is: every land has its goods and its bads.
