Touchdown! Greaser!
A buddy of mine started flight training a long time ago, but never finished.
He was thinking about getting started again, then he had a heart attack. It's been about 4 yrs since that happened.
We were talking this morning about getting a medical after a heart attack, and I thought I'd toss it out on the board to hear about anyone else's experience, what to expect, and any gotcha's there may be along the way.
I don't know any of his details, I don't know any meds he may be on, I don't know of any existing heart damage or any other items that may be of significance.
Given all that - first of all, is it possible to get a class III after a heart attack? And if so, is there a general path that needs to be followed?
Thanks.
