A heartfelt thankyou. :) You could have had a morning jog, walked the dog, coffee, or breakfast instead of taking the time to reply this, so again thanks. :) Since the med exam last week, my take has been back and forth daily, but your input is informed and motivating. There's no back scratcher...

Sorry bout that Anthem, was reading about basicmed when posting... meant lsa/sports piloting. True true Palmpilot. Who knows, might have my daughter take my stead and live vicariously through her? Lots and lots to learn more to think on. Indeed for now. Who knows in 3, 5, 10 years? Amazed...

Thank you very much for replying. (Thumbs up) Sound advice to look at it from a different approach, much appreciated. I'll have to hold off on the "What can I be doing now". Pretty bitter and frustrated with myself for not learning more about the basicMed prior to taking the exam. >:( Would have...

Ah I see, thanks for the clarification Dana. While it's not only unlawful but morally indecent not to disclose information in the questions on the 8500-8, knowing what I knew, albiet very limited at the time of the medical appointment, I felt as if there was a stronger possibility of eventually...

Hello Dana, didn’t know motor gliders were a thing. I’ll look into it.

@ Half Fast, Appreciate your reply, every little bit of input helps with my decision on how to continue. :) Read up on Andreas Lubitz. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanwings_Flight_9525 Wow...! Extremely tragic. Horrific comes more to mind. Apologies to all who know all about it and might...

Thanks for replying flyingron. I did not see the 10 year requirement listed or defined. Is there a resource or link I could be directed to regarding? Is the fact of previously having thoughts a 100% automatic exclusion, not reviewable, not for consideration for 10 years / indefinitely? Or is...

Hello All, Very, very new to the Aviation field/industry. Decided to take a discovery flight at a nearby school to determine if I could handle being in a small plane, and could a potential career switch even be possible. Absolutely fell in love! Did a bit of research (sadly not enough) and...
