Assuming they use the rotation period around the star as a timing device at all. I mean, we started doing it because of seasons on Earth. On a world without seasonality, like a tidally locked world or one without axial tilt, maybe that concept doesn’t develop.

As a dude I’ve spent quite a bit of time wondering the opposite. If I don’t take care of myself in a society where only women get really expected to, shower twice a week and never change my bedsheets, that sort of thing, is that a fundamentally chauvinist or oppressive act?

>Living life requires some “blunders”.

The FAA doesn’t really think this way. 

At the very least you’re going to get to spend some quality time in the simulator retraining after that sort of incident.

Jesus, that’s some heavy shit, homes.

You’re assuming Trump feels bound by court rulings and legal processes.

Pilots have to regularly get a medical clearance to fly, but the system isn’t entirely without holes. And in the case of the Germanwings guy, he was concealing his depression from his doctors. If someone’s doing that, there isn’t really a good way to detect it. Like, you can’t pick out mental illnesses in a blood…

Yeah, there’s a system called Known Crew Member that gets them through easier. They also have security access badges called SIDA badges.
