I have a 1st class medical from a Sr AME with zero limitations
What’s this all about?
Is this like a OSHA test where you lift a milk carton and they make sure a face mask can seal, or are they going to attempt to give me a new flight physical or some sort?
Thanks
Wasn’t all that long ago that every major and some regionals had a very extensive physical, well beyond a Class 1, as part of the interview process. AMR was particularly famous for their “astronaut physical”.
A typical airline interview physical included a full panel of bloodwork, EKG, chest x-ray, urinalysis, hearing, vision, etc. Basically the works.
