Who is Robyn Deykes?
Robin Deykes is an american pilot who is deaf. In 1995 the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposed a new set of rules that could have grounded her. The rules stated that all pilots flying in the U.S. must speak and understand spoken english. Robin, who is deaf, said, "They might as well have said NO DEAF PILOTS ALLOWED." She then tracked down John Lynch at the FAA who had been involved in developing the new rules. She told him that the rules would prevent her and other deaf and hearing impaired pilots from flying. Then John Lynch stated that the proposed rules were really the result of a misunderstanding. He had thought that most deaf people could speak and read lips. Robin's efforts helped convince the FAA to change its rules. The rules now state that pilots who are deaf or hearing impaired can continue to fly into airports where no radio contact is required.
