There's a Facebook group called "PAMSA". It's private so you'll have to ask to join. It's got tons of information about flying with diabetes. Many of the mods are type 1 with insulin pumps and are holding first class medicals.

I gave up my medical five years ago so I could go on stronger meds. Then I eventually went on insulin and now take a 24 hour insulin and a meal time insulin along with Jardiance, Ozempic, and Metformin. All that plus walking 6 miles most days keeps me down around 6.3 A1C.

I recently flew with a guy who'd been out on LTD for almost 20 years with Type 1, and he was back. We had a long conversation about it and he was totally open about when he got it, managing it etc. The stuff the FAA makes him do to keep his medical is pretty crazy, but it didn't seem to phase him one bit, he was just happy to be back. His return to work can be singularly attributed to technological advances in insulin pumps, glucose monitoring in real time, and his iphone! Pretty amazing stuff.

I wear a Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor and use an iPhone and Apple Watch. I can view my current glucose on my Apple Watch where it's usually displayed (glitches sometimes). Just now I looked down at my watch and see that I'm at 119. My phone app shows a bar graph and lots of other info. I still can't hold a Class 1 medical because of the combination of drugs I'm on. But my 3 month average glucose (A1C) is now below the diabetic threshold so it's worth it.

The FAA can be really picky on the data they want from diabetic pilots. Anyone on insulin trying to get a Class 1 I strongly suggest working with someone like AMAS and take advantage of the Facebook group PAMSA that I mentioned in an earlier post in this thread.

Does anyone have any updates for a pilot who has Type I diabetes and getting a Class I?

There's a Facebook Group called "PAMSA" that consist of diabetic pilots. Most of them are T1 with pumps. Lots of good advice on there.
The FAA is being a PITA right now, it goes back and forth depending on who's the decision maker. Be sure you have a CGM, I think the FAA only accepts Dexcom and Medtronic (sp?).
I'll try to link the FB group, if it doesn't work just search for them on FB:

Please take a look at the link. I can't get it to work.

This invite link should be good for 2 days:
