But seriously, at DL, it's more about attitude, not TT. That's why they pay the shrink.
What was it our VP Flt. Ops said?
Oh yeah:
"Stay Humble."

Medical question
Quick question, my first class medical has two waivers, eye glasses and medication for high blood pressure. Would these have any effect on my employment potential? I'm only 37, would I be seen as a risk etc?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Forunately they were kicked to the curb and we no longer pay big bucks for needless harassment by people far outside the scope of their expertise.

Not sure if it's a waiver or limitation, actually haven't even started taking it yet. If it was going to effect my employability at all, I will wait until I have a job. If not, I will probably start taking it now.

Not sure you are an AOPA member, but it might be worth it to talk to their aeromedical department and have your issues' confidentially answered by one of their consulting AMEs. I do not have any names off the top of my head, but I know there are AMEs out there who like pilots and will do what it takes to sort out any issues with OKC direct, rather than throw you under the bus and let you figure it out on your own.
