Hey everyone,
I've just started taking private pilot lessons, and gone up a few times and decided its fun, I like it, I wanna keep going with it.
So, I know I'm going to need to get my medical before I solo. I've been reading around here and the basic jist I'm getting is, I should make sure I KNOW I'm going to pass before I apply, because a denied medical would lock me out of the sport pilot option.
So I'm just wondering what I need to do before scheduling the appointment to get my medical. I have a list of local doctors provided by the flight school. I understand if I start calling them up I should be able to get a consult appointment? Is there any place I can see the forms ahead of time and see what questions are going to be asked?
I don't think there is a reason I would be denied from what little I've heard, but I don't know all the conditions that would cause a denial. Just trying to get an idea of what sorts of things would cause my medical to get declined.
I'd need a class 3, right?
Sorry if these are stupid questions, I'm just very new to all this.
