Audiogram UK medical

[grand slam]

I am not sure that, come the renewal of my medical,I will be able to pass the audiogram test, which is due soon. Do the UK CAA allow you to wear hearing aids in the way that we are allowed to wear glasses?

Not sure about that one, but after initial the standard required is pitiful. And if you really do fail I gather you can satisfy them provided you can demonstrate you can hear the radio.

I know a number of very deaf rotary pilots!

good luck

If it's like the test in the US all you had to do was nod every time the doc looked in yer eyes !!!
