Default ANG medical requirements different?

Hello all,

I'm currently thinking about joining the ANG to be a pilot. I do have kyphosis/scoliosis that exceeds the limit. Just wondering if I'd be able to get a waiver and if the ANG medical standard are a little more lenient.

Thx

Here is something I found. The information you seek is on page 887. I can't say for sure if this information is current as it is dated 2014.

I would also suggest you contact the medical unit of the ANG unit and speak with their flight surgeon. He/she should be able to further guide you on this matter.

The ANG is a great organization to be a part of. Good luck and thanks for considering service in our military.

The short answer is, the medical requirements are no different.

Published standards should come from the same USAF document. It's possible that ANG (or USAFR) might have different policies for some waivers.
