    ADHD and the FAA; A new update

    Ok. Right now the report says applying for a class 3. I've probably messaged Dr. Kay at least 10 times this past week. I would rather not bother him anymore as I already said I'd be scheduling an apt. with my AME today. I assume since the FAA considers me "cleared" of ADHD, I can just walk in to...

    ADHD and the FAA; A new update

    Hello everyone, I'm back. Good news! If you've seen me before or check my post history I was diagnosed with ADHD and Aspergers (A false diagnosis; They asked me about friends and stuff but we had moved 5 times in 6 years during that time. Longest friend I had was like 4 months at the time)...

    What does AME do with ADHD Diagnosis

    Met with Dr. Tordella yesterday. Said I have a good argument due to me seeing only a Nurse Practitioner for the last 5 years of my yearly/half-yearly checkups. Besides the Aspergers/autism (for some reason) being my primary encounter diagnosis, he thinks I can do well with the right...

    Got denial letter from FAA...

    This is great to hear! I'm going through the same thing. Was diagnosed with ADHD and Aspergers and now have to get cleared before I start going to college. $2,000+ is a lot but it will be well worth it if I pass with good scores and the FAA approves me!

    FAA bans certain Macbook Pros over fire risk concerns

    Oh... this won't end well! EDIT: It seems from what I'm reading from Apple's recall page, its only the 2015 model! They usually have leftover parts in the parts bin and probably continued to manufacture the 2015 model until say 2017 (The same reason why you could occasionally buy and iPhone 5s...

    What does AME do with ADHD Diagnosis

    Thats what I was thinking too. I contacted you in late July and was redirected to find an approved HIMS psychiatrist. I know you are partly retired, have been doing this for so long, and the fact I also don't live near where you perform evaluations so I figured Dr. Tordella is good knowing that...

    What does AME do with ADHD Diagnosis

    Thanks so I should not get the initial battery until being deferred to the FAA by my AME and getting the letter from the FAA, correct?

    What does AME do with ADHD Diagnosis

    Thanks for the resources however I've read both of those along with numerous other documents. Those describe the process for the neuropsychologist administring the batter(y/ies). I'm wondering what AMEs have to do, what they need to submit, and what I need to bring to them.

    What does AME do with ADHD Diagnosis

    Looking to obtain a class 1 medical to fly as a living. Been asking around on different forums and wanted to post here. I had ADHD when I was young. Now I'm 16 going 17 and feel confident that I suffer little from ADHD, or to such an extent that it is no danger. I've found a neuropsychologist to...
