I'd say being 3k numbers higher on the list is a decent consolation prize

Dec '22 revision of the FOM still has the requirement to carry the card "if vaccinated" and states that FODM approval is needed if a pilot doesn't have it.

I'd say living longer is worth being 3k numbers down the list.

That LCP waaay out of his lane. I'm not sure what he did was not illegal.
