Default AE Medical

Can someone please tell me about the medical at AE. Especially the eye exam. Do they check for 20/20 or is it just Gloucoma Screen?

I went to my eye dr. in june to get a new prescription, but its almost been a yr and who knows it might have changed.

thanks

ps i got a 1st class medical

Its very simple, I had the interview last monday (14th) and if you pass the first day you show up the next day and take a hearing test and 2 urine tests (one for the company, one for the DOT)...THATS IT...NOTHING ELSE!

Then they hand you a conditional letter of employment, till the captains review board at the end of the week, then the email/call you. THATS IT

I head to vero beach on the 4th then start training the 26th...good luck!!

here is the deal...
Had my HR and Tech done...they told me they will fly me out to DFW (call ashley), to do the sim ride. Then they said they will do the medical...

So let me get this straight...there is no eye test?

That's exactly how mine was a month ago. I'm sure nothing has changed.
