If this is in the wrong forum I apologize. Thought it would be good to find pre-student (like myself) or those that may have just started that might be local to me to knowledge share and help each other learn. I'm in the Tampa Bay Area (of Florida). Live in Odessa, FL (33556) but am willing...

Yup plan to talk to the PCP about sleep apnea to see what she says I need to do.

Thanks so far I have the following to get filled out. FAA Form 8500-7 C-CACI Hypertension C-CACI Pre-Diabetes FAA Form 8700-2 Diabetes or Hyperglycemia on Oral Medications Status Report

Since I already had my regular blood work and PCP visit schedules August 13th that's my timeline to get as much upfront figuring out before I see my PCP and have documents for her to fill out before I schedule my AME. Also going to schedule an eye exam around then as well so that I have that...

I thought I read somewhere on a Sport License when I considered you were limited to like 1 or 2 passengers which would be kind of a bummer. The Alt. restriction I didn't care about but the passenger one did. I'd probably at some point go for IFR rating as well just because it would allow me to...

Thanks, everyone, as a kid I had asthma but that's it other than broken bones. Never had any regular medication until last year with the DM2 and High Blood pressure both under control with diet and meds now. This could also motivate me to shut my pie hole and get on a treadmill too haha. No...

Next time you are in the Tampa Area I owe you a lunch/dinner. Thanks for your help.

So this "consultation" should I be expecting to pay if he/she says there are problems? But if he/she you look good then I hand over my number and throw cash at him/her for their time? "consultation" to me I was assuming free, but I think I follow you too far. Basically, don't give up my...

Awesome information Mike Thank You. For the part of doing a consultation visit with an AME, what am I'm looking for there and what questions might I ask. It sounds like I would be feeling him/her out on if they feel they would issue an "in office" class 3 or if they would differ.

AggieMike88 just so I'm clear the two CACI forms those would be completed by the AME not my PCP and would just need documentation from my PCP to answers those questions on those forms which from looking at them I pass all those questions. My Last A1C was Jan so I'll need to get that done again...

Wow thanks, Mike, I've probably watched 40hrs or Youtube training videos and have read hundreds of websites on all of these and was starting to bum myself out with the feeling that it might not be in the cards for me. I really like your answers and finding an AME that would give an "in office"...

That's for the response, I am in the Tampa, FL area. I have not be diagnosed with OSA and my PCP has never mentioned getting a sleep study done.

Also forgot to mention if you want to remain anonymous I understand but would appreciate if you could still PM me. No I'm not with the FAA on a witch hunt looking for violators :)

First off, Hello! I'm new here so be gentle :) Since I was a kid I wanted to either be a pilot or be a train engineer. Neither happened, parents bought be a computer in the 80's and I became a computer guy. Fast forward to now being 45, I have type II diabetes controls by diet and oral...
