No Search Function?/Sleep Apnea
Perhaps, I'm overlooking it, but I'm not seeing a search function. I want to look up information on sleep apnea, but didn't want to ask a question that has already been answered.
So at the risk of starting a new thread:
I'm 32 (today) and have one year left in the Air Force. I'm not a pilot, but have been thinking of going to flight school to pursue a career as a commercial pilot. I understand my age really will not play too much of a factor in getting a job, but I fear that having sleep apnea may affect it.
I talked to a school, and the advisor said he has apnea, but still flies. But, that doesn't help me in my situation. Will an airline hire me with sleep apnea? Sure, I can get a third class medical certificate to become a student pilot, but how about when I'm ready to go commercial? Anyone with experience in this?
