S.L. 499.26 ст. 8Suspension and revocation of pilots’ licences.

(1) The licence issued to a pilot shall be automatically cancelled by the Authority when the pilot retires on reaching the retiring age that may from time to time be prescribed, or if such pilot is found by a Medical Board appointed by the Authority to be physically unfit to carry out his duties.

(2) The Authority may also suspend or revoke the licence issued to a pilot as a consequence of the award by a Disciplinary Committee of a punishment consisting in the suspension or revocation of the licence, or if the pilot absents himself from duty for a period exceeding one year. Such licence, if so revoked, shall cease to have effect from the date when such decision is taken by the Authority and, if so suspended, it shall cease to have effect for the period for which it is suspended.

(3) Subject to any condition which the Disciplinary Committee may make, the Authority may re-issue a licence to a pilot whose licence has been revoked under sub-regulation (2).

(4) A licence issued to pilot shall be surrendered to the Authority whenever it is for any reason cancelled, suspended or revoked. In such cases, the licence shall be returned to the Authority within twenty-four hours.

(5) A person whose licence has been cancelled, suspended or revoked shall have a right to appeal to the Board from the decision of the Authority or of the Disciplinary Committee by application within fifteen days of the notification to him of the decision.
