Airlines use background checks and psychological testing to assess whether pilots are fit to fly, according to a report by the Financial Times.
The supplied summary identifies those two screening measures but does not describe how they are conducted or what they assess.
It also does not name the airlines involved or provide findings that prompted the report.
The available information does not establish that screening guarantees a pilot is fit to fly, or that any particular pilot has been identified as unfit.
