Could I ask why you are only going for a UK class 1 and not a dual medical?
Best of luck!
Thank you for the reply.
I thought I would just tackle the CAA initial medical first and see where that takes me. Due to my allergies, I feel like I would be fortunate to get an Initial Class 1, even with an OML restriction.
If you don't mind me asking, what stage are you into your training or career? Has having an OML restriction hindered your training/job prospects at all? I see the majority of integrated schools for example state you require an 'unrestricted Class medical', so was not sure how much of an issue that may cause in the future.
Thanks.
