Hi meacadetpilot,
I understand what you say and I thought the same thing.
However, the matter is that I'm living in France, I'm working during the exams period and I'm not able to go to Beirut many times in a month if I know my candidature is preliminary refused. Do you understand?
I think they will tell me by now if such a slight dioptry and astigmatism is totally refused or maybe they'll say: "you can apply , we can make medical derogations"..like they do everywhere in medical exams for pilots! And with such requirments (-1 dioptry!) they may admit that they accept a slight excess.
