hmm

well i know i can pass

FAA
JAR(CAA)
CASA(Australia)

Class 1 medical..

i'm well inside their limits...

and since my health is generally good, good ECG, good hearing,.... i believe i can get through those comfortably.


i'm myopic

L: -4d 1.75D AStig
R: -4d 1.75D Astig


JAR(CAA) +/- 5D maximum correction(i'm inside)
FAA/CASA no correction limit, corrected vision must be 6/6 (i'm inside too)


but not so for A Malaysian Class 1

Malaysian Class1:

uncorrected vision not to be worst than 6/60 with correction not exceeding +/- 3 D .

so... according to the AME, i would have a liltle difficulty in obtaining a class 1 medical in Malaysia.

I need to do a full-opthalnology check-up and submit the report to AME for my case to be considered according to my AME.

Thus i would like to ask anyone who is a Professional Pilot in Malaysia who holds a Class 1 whilst exceeding the Correction Limit to share their experiences here.


Should i Pursue a Flying Career Overseas? i.e. Australia, Europe?
