Retiring…Mil Apnea to FAA?
Broad question, I’m finishing my active duty retirement time and am already 50% seniority at a major airline. I’m thinking about going in and getting checked for apnea on the mil side before I retire. If I do, and it comes back positive, how does that transfer to my AME/current FAA Class 1?

If you need to, then you need to. But I probably wouldn't go fishing for a VA % that's going to cost you way more on the airline side than the VA will pay. |

Some AMEs (popular with discerning airline pilots) have an off the record policy and will give you excellent advice and officially "forget" about the conversation. |
