Previously they based their heart risk assessment data on Americans who have a different dietary and exercise lifestyle to many of us (read we’re not as overweight as they are). Consequently, we’re less likely to have heart complications now than before. So all those stress ECGs I’ve been doing for last 3 years which confirms my good state of health weren’t really required afterall. My last medical was completed in under 45 minutes, with full class 1 medical issued by CASA by the time I reached home from my DAME.
Finally some sense with the folks at CASA amved department.
