Hi guys
I commented and said I’d go the microlight route but the other half said it’s planes that you want to learn so I took a look at that. The eyesight requirements concern me though predominantly the 2 dioptre restriction on astigmatism. Currently my prescription is
Dist. Sph. Cyl. Axis
Right. +1.25. -0.5. 180
Left. +2.5. -1.75. 12
Aided visual acuity
Right 6/5
Left 6/5
Now if I was to do the ppl it would be to eventually work towards the ppl instructor job or other means of small aircraft jobs (no interest in airline).
My first question is can you instruct for ppl and do other small aircraft jobs with a class 2 medical or do you need a class 1?
Secondly does my presecriotion reach the requirements? I don’t think my astigmatism is at the limit yet but it’s close, would they just revoke my license if it gets worse with age?
Thanks for your help
Andrew
