The fact that they treat pretty much any treatment of mental illness, no matter how long ago, as "probably actively suicidal and a danger to themself and others" is what I take issue with. And it's a tedious, time consuming, expensive process to try to get cleared. To the point where several flight instructors, and the chief pilot, have told me I should've just lied on the federal form. Because that's what everyone else does. But whatever, I have cheaper hobbies.
