So as for LOC - did you document this on any formal forms with the FAA such the medical exam when applying for ATC. And, is there REALLY any documentation of LOC at all - because that is the question - if no real LOC - then it never happened - and that can be explained on the Medexpress - it is NOT lying - it would be the truth.
As for MMPI - that has NO bearing on getting a class 1 certificate because there is NO MD giving you a diagnosis of a PD.

I would be happy to help

No, I didn’t. One of the questions asked if I’ve ever passed out or fainted so I checked yes. Loss of consciousness wasn’t mentioned.

Pretty sure "passed out" or "fainted" = LOC.

Yup. Seems like...

pass out
phrasal verb of pass
1.
become unconscious.
"he consumed enough alcohol to make him pass out"
synonyms: faint, lose consciousness, black out
"this heat could make anyone pass out"

Hey Mugsy - is this an attempt to see how close you can get without REALLY suborning making a false statement? Because it seems to be skating pretty darn close....


And bad things happen to people who do that...
