After reading this, I'm sick to my stomach. I have been flying as an FE in the Navy for 20+ years and started my civilian career as a PFE. The whole time I was taking the FALANT because I can't pass the plates. My med is due in January and if this is true then my dream of getting my ratings and upgrading to FO or even just keeping my current, wonderful job may be over as well. What gets me so angry is I see every color or colored light just fine and have never had a real world issue when seeing and identifying anything, but there are always about 4-5 plates that to me are either unreadable or I guess wrong because it is either a 3 or an 8 and they make the pattern so close that if you are just slightly color weak they know you will have to guess. Any Flight Docs here that can offer some advice?
