Hello folks.
I have to take a medical checkride before I can get my medical and solo. I have a few questions about it.
Thanks!
I have to take a medical checkride before I can get my medical and solo. I have a few questions about it.
- I'd think that once I have my medical, it will be good for any category of aircraft. For instance, if I take the medical checkride in an airplane and get my medical, I'd be able to receive training in a helicopter and solo without having to do another medical checkride. Is this correct?
- If I get a third-class medical and want to upgrade to a second-class medical, would I need to take another medical checkride or would my SODA still apply?
- I have a blind spot in one eye. I maintain good peripheral vision in that eye, and with both eyes open I have 20/20 vision and don't see the blind spot. My depth perception does suffer, though. The opinions I've received over the years have typically been that I shouldn't have an issue receiving a second- and possibly first-class medical. Do y'all agree/disagree?
Thanks!
