look at the LGA MD-80 accident i think 1993. IOE captain had one contact for near, one for far, descended 4 dots low with the silent coPilot. Ended up badly in the water with loss of life.FAA admits is it s poorly worded question. The use of a contact use (in one eye) is not allowed. Contacts are allowed.
Is that a categorical ban, or only in cases where the result would be monovision? There was a time for about 5 years when I had one eye plano, the other -0.75. I wore a contact in the -0.75 eye and had no trouble getting a 3rd class during that time.FAA admits it's poorly worded question. The use of a contact use (in one eye) is not allowed.
