Default Wanted: Blind air traffic controller

To be an air traffic controller you need many talents, including quick decision-making skills, calmness under pressure and – crucially – good eyesight.

But at one airport with a vacancy, application forms are being offered in Braille – despite stating the job r*equires 20/20 vision. St Mary's airport, on the Isles of Scilly, says it must include the small print for its equality policy.

Another case of PC gone mad, or can they just not see it's stupid?
