ISR Medical Screening Question
Anyone familiar the pre-deployment medical screening for flying military contracts? I hold a Class 1 medical with no limitations but have some hearing loss that I'm concerned about. I understand they administer another hearing test at CRC. Anyone know how hard up they are about this sort of thing?

I'm assuming you actually aren't all THAT radioactive, of course. ;) |
Ha, thanks. The hearing loss is serious enough to concern me. Someone mentioned that if you fall outside certain thresholds it could create a problem. I'll keep this in mind and let you know the verdict in a few weeks.

Have you ever seen dudes fly with hearing aids in those jobs?

We have one currently. 72 years old. He's deaf as a ****ing doorknob. In reality it's actually kind of a problem but I'm sure you'll pass through CRC.

My understanding is that doorknobs have very acute hearing.
|
Haha perhaps I've underestimated the mighty doorknob.
We are actually issued Lightspeed ANR headsets to use on my program... and I think this guy went and bought a Bose for some reason. Hasn't helped much unfortunately! |
Hawkrider, PM sent.
