    The original stays in my safe (unsigned and not cut out) and will be only used for making copies, I carry a copy of the certificate that was copied onto a thicker stock of paper.

    Got the SI in the mail today!! It was dated 12/11, hit the post office on 12/12 and received today 12/15. So it was really approved that day I called and it was mailed out but the internal mail probably delayed it by 1 day. The one I got in the mail is certainly a better one than I recieved...

    47 here, i had a heart attack at 45. Just got my first deffered class 3. The trick I learned is to have a specialist in the field of the issue and also be an AME. I found a cardiologist, he accepted me as his patient then I made my AME appointment through him. It saved a ton of time with the...

    That pic makes it look good.. So SI certificates not have numbers on them, on the printed application from my AME at the time of deferral, It had a incomplete medical cert as part of the application, but it had numbers on it. Is that an indication thats its an SI?

    I tried to call but was on hold, then i got the closed message. The funny part is that it is already showing up on the airmen inquiry on the FAA web page. Ill call in the AM and request a fax or email. This is my first medical, 3rd class.

    I think the big time saver for me was that I found an AME that is also a specialist in the field of my illness. My AME is a cardiologist and having cardiology issues made him the key. He knew what to write, what they wanted and made sure it was all in order prior to my AME visit. They did want...
