Madape Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: "Class 1 Medical" 07-08-02, 11:40z  Hiya All Some of you may know that after I've finished my Univeristy course, and if I can get sponsorship with an airline, I want to train to become a Commercial Pilot. In the UK (According to my current CAA Medical Certificate) there are 3 Class's of Medical Certificate, Class 1, 2, and 3, I currently hold a Class 2 which expires in 2005. I was just wondering what are the expectations of fitness for a Class 1 Certificate, do I need to be super fit for the airlines to take me? I am fairly fit, 1.9 Meters in height, and about 160 Pounds in weight. Any Advice/Help on this would be v.helpful Sam Harvey sam@crew.flightadventures.com Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Madape Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 3. "RE: Class 1 Medical" 07-09-02, 10:17z  Ahh thats a relief, the sight standards are the same for Class 2 as a Class 1 - I had an operation on my left eye whe I was born, it only affected the sight v.slightly but I think if I can pass a Class 2, Class 1 does seem too difficult!

That's good news, Sam. However, you make it sound like studying for a urine test! Good luck and send us some pix when you start flying again!
