Landsberg also is not proud that he has degree in psychology. He also said with statistics and data, "if you torture the data enough, you'll get it to confess to anything" (basically stating that the cognatative assessments are subjectively graded where the data is tortured/manipulated to give the desired results) and we have to be careful how we use statistics

This shows the subjectively graded FAA cognative tests have nothing to do with safety and are really about creating a cottage industry that holds pilots hostage for as much money can be squeezed out of them by dangling the hope with no guarantee of getting their medicals back. Far from it, these trapped pilots are subjectively graded as fails in order to keep them in hostage indefinitely. It's time to let the safest pilots have their unrestricted medicals back without any strings attached and to put these mental health quacks cottage industry of holding pilots hostage out of business.
