Pre-takeoff checklist
Last summer I took a short cut down a ladder, after a branch hit it. More damage was done from this 4 foot fall than I had though possible. I had broken Medial malleolus, requiring two screws to repair and basically shattered the fibula, where I now have a bar and 7 seven screws to repair.
On top of all that there was a dislocation as well, and it is this that I am still dealing with the stiffness and range of motion and strength.
I went up with an instructor last month to see if I was ready to start flying again and complete my flight review which I had delayed a bit. My next medical isn't due until next year. While I am fit to return to the air at this point, I am not sure what I will need to furnish, if anything for my next medical.
I am a little confused because on one hand this required hospitalization but on the other it seems that it might be covered on the simple problems.
So do I need to report it before returning to flight or can I wait till my next medical and at that time what, if anything do I need to provide?
