Cleared for Takeoff
I just got back from my annual physical with my PCP and he did the exam and signed the form. It was a total non-issue. The exam was completely covered by my insurance. My last visit to the AME cost $175.
If it wasn't for BasicMed I'd be going to my ophthalmologist to have him do the 8500-7 form again in order to renew my 1-year Special Issuance. I would then have to wait months for the FAA to review it. Last year I lost half a summer of flying because they took much longer than I expected.
