Default Medical

Hi all,

thanks for your valuable input.

So, it appears that from an FAA point of view, I should not face any trouble with the class I medical when it comes to the vision/prescription part.
That's good to hear.

Most airlines seem to have dropped custom, tightened medical requirements and examinations.

"AA and UAL were sued over that in the late 90's IIRC (they won). I suspect DAL had the same policy and probably others."

=> does that mean that the tightened medical requirements are still in place with AA and UAL?
What about DAL as of today?
(Not that I really think I could get a job at those majors, but ... you never know)
