I had coarctation of aorta repair at the age of 1 with no complications since. I regularly see cardiologist and have yet to have an issue. I also take BP med’s but during my medical it was 125/75. The AME contacted the Atlanta office to see if they want me to do an EKG or visit a cardiologist again before he will grant my first class medical (initial). Is this normal? I was under the impression that AME’s were appointed to make these decisions, especially since the FAA is usually slow to respond to these things.
