I just did a consult with an ame. I have had a dui, taken adhd medicine when I was younger, and I have had some anxiety issues due to some stressful life and relationship events. Based on my testimony he says I have a good chance at special issuance. I plan on getting a neuropsychologist evaluation and taking the cogscreen tests. I see these questions a lot on this forum board and my case is a lot of questions wrapped up in one. I will keep track of the costs and I hope I can get my medical. This has been a life long dream for me. Wish me luck!!! I’m ready to solo and I have put this process off for a very long time (lack of funds).

I wish you good luck for your journey and say Thank You for willing to share the details.
thank you!
I have looked at lsa. I plan on getting my glider pilot add on as well. I absolutely love flying and regardless of the outcome I will always fly something even if it’s with an instructor. My ame said I have a really good chance at getting special issuance as long as i do everything he asks. I finished my college education and worked my way up in a company so now I have the money to pay for flight school out of pocket and do whatever medical testing is required. I’ve had some bumps in the road, and I am hoping with the assistance of my doctor I can go on to getting my unrestricted first class medical. I either want to be a cfii or go onto land survey. Mabye cargo or charter if I get lucky.
