They will make sure you have ALL the required tests and paperwork prior to sending your file to OKC. Trust me, you do not want to tackle this by yourself.
Ok, thanks for the advice. I'm using ALPA Aeromedical, how do you feel about them?
Also I think I already screwed things up big time. I called the FAA atlanta regional office with a simple question and now they have mailed me a certified letter requesting I mail my medical certificate back to them for cancellation. I gotta get with ALPA Aeromedical on monday and see what I should do. Ironically I got this letter from the FAA the day after my blood tests came back Euthyroid. Any thoughts?
