Hi,
I am hoping to apply to learn to fly soon, with the eventual goal to becoming an airline pilot. I have Haemophilia B, which is a blood clotting disorder (it doesn't bleed any faster, it just takes a lot longer to stop). Looking through the BA Medical criteria, it doesn't mention Haemophilia directly, just something about blood testing etc. Can anybody clarify the situation for me? Any pilots out there with Haemophilia? Can't see that there would be a problem but I just wanted to make sure,
Cheers
